Too busy

With my current job in the oilfield abroad, I’ve just been too busy too keep this blog updated with my recent work. With my recent change to a rotation schedule, I’m hoping to do some more photography work back in Pittsburgh, especially with my wedding coming up. Sarah and I will be flying out to California for the honeymoon and I’m looking forward to making some nice images along Rt 1.

Will be back some time! If you want to get in touch, I’m still reachable at jw@jwramp.com

Peace.

I miss this town

Ten+ weeks so far in Angola, and who knows when I’ll be back in the U S of A.
I miss Pittsburgh.

Boyd

I went for a walk this afternoon down Main Street in small-town Jenks, OK. It seems like 80% of the stores on the street are antique shops, and I stopped in a couple to see their remnants of the past.

At the American Heritage Antiques shop, I met a man named Boyd. He told me that he because AHA is open seven days a week, he occasionally fills in for the shopowner on the weekends to give him a break. They had a bunch of very nice vintage pocketwatches, and Boyd and I talked about the 1886 Elgin that I got from my grandmother’s estate. He taught me about watch fobs and showed me some examples from insurance companies from the ’40s.

When I asked Boyd if I could take his picture, he said to be careful, because he wasn’t sure if my camera would survive.

New Design

jwramp.com has a new design – trying to simplify the portfolio section by abolishing Flash (hey, if it’s not good enough for the iPad, it’s not good enough for me, right?). let me know in the comments if you’ve got any issues on your particular platform.

cheers!
