Statement of Intent

I grew up around my dad's boating workshop and seen it change overtime. It's old, and falling apart. The rusty junk piles get higher and prove to be an eyesore from the road. But up close tangled in their cables and wires is something beautiful and I wonder why it took this long for me to rediscover it.

I am in the process of going threw my images some posted and sooo many that are not up here. I am thinking I should divide the book up into sections much like you would a catalog that separates o-rings, pumps, motors, and control boards however, they would be more like interior space, internal workings, wires, and employers. I have a few pictures of the guys that work in the shop that are interesting to me that I would like to share in the book as well.

These photos have not been altered as of yet.



The Boss Man

A bulletin board full of my old science fair project titles, a drawing, Chinese takeout menu and some other unproductive office decor.


Boatalicious....

Surgeons at work on the internal workings of Boatalicious.


The Heart


Looked like metallic pancakes

While Flipping threw an old parts diagram I discovered more confusion and blood.... or oil.





















I never took a boating class



"The Old Gal Wasn't putting Out" my brother said as I took the shot.


Old Black as in Oil you don't want in your car.....

    I love the way your book is coming together. Each of your images are strong and tell a story. They give a look at a 'at first glance' doesn't seem interesting at all, but with a closer look become very interesting.

    These photos are really interesting. I hope you are including text in your book also-I think it would really add to the experience.

    you have so much variety, and your subject is very interesting. I don't feel like i'm looking at photos to crit them when I look at your images. I don't know if that's because you take them from a certain angle or light, but it's really nice.

    I like the idea of categorizing these images. I was hoping to see book layouts here. (see Sabra's) If it was not clear, I apologize, but that is what I am expecting for next week.

    It will be so much easier to talk about if they were in that format.

    Otherwise, the images are looking good, keep going.
