Introspection: Self Portrait, 1991

Large Format Self Portrait (with Graphic View 4 x 5 camera), Pt. Reyes, 1991

In 1991 I was back from London and had decided with my ex wife to start a family vs. being a very successful Road Warrior. I don’t have any regrets, but certainly wondered about that decision after my ex wife filed for divorce years later.

I fell in love with sea kayaking at Pt. Reyes

My ex wife was pregnant with our first and we stayed a long weekend at a house in Marshall, at Pt. Reyes. I started sea kayaking and loved it. That was about July of 1991, and Graham was born that October, the day of the massive Oakland Hills Fire.

Sitting by the dock of the bay …..

I do remember realizing that that was the “calm before the storm”, and as it turned out it was so much more than I ever bargained for.
