I’m finally home (Bahrain), and I’m glad to be here with my girlfriend. She’s already super excited to see everything- I just want to sleep. Flying from Ottawa to Montreal to Doha to Bahrain for 12 hours is an experience I hope not to repeat. Let alone being stuck in customs for over an hour because they suspected she was a journalist. Oh, and they forgot about the luggage, so we had to wait an extra hour for it to arrive from Doha. It’s all worth it - adventures are right around the corner.
I’m unhappy about your leaving so soon. Thought you still had a few more days! Enjoy yourself, I’m looking forward to your return.
Watched an old man pull this out of his sock and stick it on the inside of the bus stop today.

Friend and former assistant Stefan just published these:one year ago, in may 2011, i took these photos of the talented painter christian schoeler in his atelier in düsseldorf. originally they were meant to be used for a publication in art review magazine, but his gallery decided to just publish a repro of one of his pieces. of course the call telling us about the decision came in while we were shooting…
but it’s ok, at least i had a reason to shoot medium format and i somehow like the outcome :)watch the whole set here
