Thanks for looking.

House Fire

Tragedy strikes and it can be difficult to photograph...especially when the tragedy is in my own life... This is an image from a personal essay about a big fire at my house. More to come...

New job

I just accepted a position in Park City, UT for chief photographer at the Park Record, a paper that prints twice per week. Life is good.

Another from the vault

Possible news on a new staff job at a paper...more info to come...

As I work out some kinks in my brain, I have to post a couple of photos from the vault. New work to come soonest...

Old portrait. Summer 2007.

From the vault

Washington's Joel Smith. He doesn't score a ton, but when he does, it's with style. This is a recent addition to the ryderpictures.com 'sport' gallery. Other new or updated galleries are Cuba, Cockfighting in Cuba, and Food and Wine.

NYC street photography

Website idea

Trying out new looks for the front page of my site...here's one idea

Football

'A Photo Editor' Promo

I made the cut for the promo over at Rob Haggart's 'A Photo Editor' blog. It's a slide show of his top picks of talented photographers, meant to connect photo editors and art buyers with photographers. Click here to see it.

My image is #97 and looks like this:


Update: I realized I can embed the slide show, so here it is --

Whoa

Don't worry, I dodged this pigpile as I fired off a few frames. This is from Seattle Majestics v. Portland last night.

Women's tackle football fills the void in the off season. And these ladies can hit! More to come soon.

Another Holga shot

A Holga is a little $15 plastic camera that shoots film. Gives a nice unique look that works well in Cuba. This image is from Cienfuegos, Cuba and I just developed it.

The Viagra apron

Playa Giron, Cuba.

Wine with a citrus twist

Orange you glad you saw this?

Avocados
