And then...it was done. The band has returned. In between sets, yesterday, I had a whiskey, a pint, and a cigar. #then #done #band #festival #livemusic #musicfestival #live #localband #celtic #whiskey #pint #cigar #inbetween #music

I often find, when I am in someplace new and I have downtime, my mind is a blank piece of paper, where I have unfortunately lost my pen. #writersblock #mind #blank

Salty air and foggy mornings are quite alluring. #saltair #sea #alluring #morning #fog

Seattle. October 19th. This past Monday. The moon is trying its best to become a street lamp. The air became crisp, reminding us of where we are in the season. It's all disappearing so quickly. #seattle #phinneyridge #moon #phinney #disappearing #fall #season #autumn #moments

The view, this morning. #view #beach #ocean #sky #pnw

In Ocean Shores, in Oyhut Bay, drinking an Obec Brewing English Bitter. #coast #oceanshores #ocean #washingtonstate #oyhutbay #pnw #obecbrewing #brewery #localbrewery #localbeer #beer #englishbitter #bitter #pints

Everything seems to be rushing past me. It is nice to find a few slower moments. #everything #rushing #fast #hurried #slower #moments #ocean #beach #sea #seattle

Waiting for the film to be developed, and transferred. Waiting for the next opportunity to film. #waiting #film #next #opportunity

There are greater things than money, but money helps, when aptly applied. #artists #art #support #income

I spoke, recently, of these sacred months approaching, then fading fast. Too fast, it seems, at least for my taste. We are already at the midpoint of October, and it still feels like I am running. #autumn #running #fading #fall #fallseason #seasons #toofast #sacred #october #slippingaway

I discovered the Gaf S/80 [Super 8 camera] may have a faulty footage counter. Saturday's footage should be intact. But, what about Wednesday's? #super8 #super8film #cinema #super8mm #testshot #testing #test #filmproject #filmfootage #footage #filmmaker #anticipation

Wednesday. Second film shoot, and first scene of the evening. #wednesday #filmshoot #film #filmscene #evening #director #super8 #super8film #cinema #filmmaking #filmmaker #artist

Early morning film shoot. No permits. Just two people, a camera, and a tripod. #earlymorning #filmshoot #art #filmproject #filmmaker #film #people #camera #tripod #artists

I have been working on a project. One of the greatest joys in filmmaking, for me, is creating the world and its characters. This is a preview of things to come. #filmproject #newfilm #director #filmmaker #auteur #indiefilm #project #creating #characters #worldbuilding #preview #artist #art

Hello, October. #hello #october

It has been a while, since I've had to research auto exposure capabilities of Super 8 cameras. #awhile #research #super8film #super8mm #super8 #director #filmmaker #filmmaking #film #art

The sound of rain through the open window... #sound #rain #thesoundofrain #peaceful #openwindow #chill

The 'Ber Months are here, and the first is quickly fading. September, I hardly knew thee. #autumn #september #fading

As Sunday approaches, I find myself, reminiscing, about last Sunday's sunset. #sunday #reminiscing #sunset

I was remiss in my ordinary acknowledgement of the beginning of this season. I am feeling alive, but already running. #remiss #acknowledgement #beginning #season #alive #running #feeling #reflection

Life and time, are slipping into Fall. It has been an excellent September. #life #time #slipping #fall #artist #autumn #fallseason #excellent #september #seasons #reflect
