Bad A** Joe, and More to Come!

Just for fun, and because I haven't updated in a LOOOOONG time, here's a couple of shots of my buddy Joe. Joe and I go way, way back - junior high, actually - and he's frequently aparty to my crazy schemes, zany ideas and wild hares. Joe's recently acquired a new motorcycle - a hog, to be fully accurate - and we shot a few photos the other day. Well, first, we met for lunch at our standard spot, and because I had walked there, and he had ridden his hog we "car-pooled" back on his bike. Let's just say that we probably looked a little, um, silly on the short ride back. Neither of us is a little guy, and the bike is not huge, so we were pretty friendly. ANYWAY, we got back to my place and I conned him into a little portrait shoot. He wasn't too stoked for it, so I suggested he keep his "armor" on, and really - I think the glasses add to the shot. This is Joe with his tough face on. Below, the man and his machine. It was a fun afternoon - thanks, Dude!
John.p.s. - I've been shooting lots of fun stuff lately, and I promise to get a fair amount of it up here on the 'ol blog. Thanks for stopping by!
