Clean Out the Cruft
Today is my first full day back from two months away. It’s the kind of day that’s good for looking back & saying thank-you, and for taking stock & looking on. Some thoughts came to mind that I want to remind myself of over the next short season. To keep them front & centre I made this image.

Joshua Tree Panoramas
Just back from two days with a good friend, enjoying nothing but the quiet of the wind and the rocks under our feet in Joshua Tree National Park. The trip was (purposefully) undocumented, except for a few stops to make these pano’s.

Sartre on Story
…everything changes when you tell about life… things happen one way and we tell about them in the opposite sense. You seem to start from the beginning: “It was a fine autumn evening in 1922. I was a notary’s clerk in Maromme.” And, in reality, you have started at the end…
The end is there, transforming everything. For us, the man is already the hero of the story… we feel that the hero has lived all the details of this night like annunciations, promises, or even that he lived only those that were promises, blind and deaf to all that did not herald adventure.
We forget that the future was not yet there; the man was walking in a night without forethought, a night which offered him a choice of dull, rich prizes, and he did not make his choice.
— Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea

Rwanda: Hope Rises DVD Release
It’s hard to believe that almost five years ago, five friends started planning for a trip to Rwanda. Our plan was to shoot a documentary in two weeks, spend a month in hard-core editing, and have it ready to watch by the summer of 2005.
I was so naive, in so many ways. I had shot several documentaries by this point, but nothing on this scale. The process has been intense, difficult, and there was more than once that the whole thing almost didn’t happen. But here we are… the film is ready for the world to see on DVD.
You can get your copy here: Hope Rises Store. There is more info and trailers on the website as well as a Facebook fan page.
Thanks for all of your support over the years to get this thing made.
