Flip, Twist & Land
David & I went on a little planning trip on Friday - he's a recent convert to the ways of Parkour, and we're planning on doing some cool stunts in the near future.

OBT+Andy Batt=PhotoMedia
I was asked to contribute to Spring 2007 issue of Photo Media Magazine, for their "Shot in the Back" section. We talked about various images [PBR Buttcrack almost made it] and chose this image, shot for the 2005/2006 Oregon Ballet Theatre campaign. I really like this image - it's got a great location, punchy lighting, a story and a fantastic moment for the dancers. To see this season's work in action you can head over to OBT.org. I'm also please to announce that I will be showing 15 fine art prints from my OBT-Backstage series, here in Portland. For April they will be at the B-Street Gallery as part of a group show put on by the Pointe Society, and then for May it will be a solo exhibit at the Art Bar.
And yes, of course the work is for sale - the prints are beautiful 13" x 20" archival epson prints, on one of my favorite papers–Hahnemuhle Fine Art Pearl–and were printed by the fine craftsmen over at Pushdot Studio.

March Fourth on Mar. 4th
On 3/4/07 The March Fourth Marching Band held their 4th annual birthday bash at the Crystal Ballroom. It was a sold out show, and for good reason! This band has everything - drumline, horn section, stilts, hula hoops, burlesque, bass guitars, and an energy that doesn't quit. These are just a few of my favorite images from the night.
