After walking the Big Morongo Preserve, lunch at Willie Boy’s Saloon. Do you know the story of Willie Boy or seen the movie “Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here” with Robert Redford, Katherine Ross and Robert Blake? The actual Willie Boy’s grave monument bears the inscription “The West’s Last Famous Manhunt”. Willie Boy’s Saloon just shares the name, but is otherwise kind of a fun and interesting place.
The Big Morongo Preserve is in the Little San Bernardino Mountains. Ranging from an altitude from 600ft to 3,000ft, it covers 31,000 acres. Just a quick drive from Palm Springs.
Who would have thought we would be watching Jesika von Rabbit at the Galen Palm Springs Art Museum In Palm Desert last night! Her page describes her as “penultimate post-modern inter-galactic pop provocateur.” “… the buxotic blonde vixen…” “…comes in the form a characteristically sizzling celestial psych-disco sound…”. What a great fun show! Love her music! The photos with her dancing entourage Larry Van Horn and her Banana!
Photobomb or not? Maybe she is just ignoring him. Above the bay in Marina Del Rey California for a photo shoot.
It’s 2015 so let’s have lots of fun and shoot lots of photographs! Cara Jo Basso playing in the wind high over Wilshire Blvd. in Los Angeles.

Cortney CortCity Solomon was so fun in front of my camera! And like Cortney you can be in front of my cameras too, whether in the gym for bodybuilding and fitness or edgy fashion lifestyle or other sports or concepts. It could be for yourself, magazine editorials or advertisements for your products or services. Just send me an e-mail to SecondFocus@mac.com and and we can chat about it.
I want to say that I am very heartened by how many of you have contacted me over the last week about shooting. I have heard from people looking to build their own portfolios and promotion, companies looking to shoot their advertising and magazines looking for something different and unique. It shows that people are thinking ahead and optimistic about the New Year. Outstanding!
You could be looking at behind the scenes photographs of my photo shoot with you. These are from one of my shoots with the more than beautiful and wonderful Stacey Naito. This is the time that I am really giving a lot of thought to my planning for photo shoots for the coming year just around the corner. Of course I will continue to do my photography in bodybuilding and fitness whether in the gym, in the pool, or on location. I am also continuing to expand my shooting more directed to lifestyle features, edgy and nude fashion, editorial and advertising. And as I have always said, I reserve the right to photograph anything I find fun and interesting. So if you want to be a part of any of those concepts, genres and ideas or just want to get in on the fun and interesting, it is time to send me an e-mail to SecondFocus@mac.com with what you are thinking and let’s chat about it. Thanks! 
The SBD Dauntless is a World War II Naval dive bomber that is best known for sinking the Japanese carriers at the Battle of Midway in June 1942. This very rare and still flying Dauntless not only saw service during the war but also appeared in the movies “Midway” and “War And Remembrance”. Flying out of the Palm Springs Air Museum from the “Planes Of Fame” Air Museum in Chino California.
I started thinking about my photo shoot plans for next year. That may include many of you. So if you have been thinking about shooting with me or planning your magazine editorials or advertising campaigns, let’s chat.

As I often say, I reserve the right to photograph anything I find fun and interesting. But seriously, whatever your concept, let’s talk! We can make it worthwhile and fun! Send me a note to SecondFocus@mac.com.
