Here is a character who resides in Bob's consignment store here in San Clemente California. He will be a mascot in a way...to keep the vibrations up.

Stay tuned for my San Francisco work coming in the next week.

In the height of the current recession and the "who's in charge?" attitude floating around here in California I would like to introduce a new element to my blog. "Who's in charge?" is just what I am after right now and I intend to visit this them through many angles. Here is a photo of a struggling business in San Clemente Ca. The owner is a dear friend of mine who is nothing short of a GENTLE man. Bob. Bob has given me carte blanche to photograph his store both inside and out - sharing to you all the small details this business has to offer.

I will be setting sail to San Francisco tomorrow for an outright crusade to re-visit with friends, and write a spread on some varying dimensions and how they are affected by the elusive current state of affairs.

keep tuned.

Fondly,
