MY GOOD FRIEND, CURTIS BUCHANAN, LIVES IN LOS ANGELES AND ENJOYS MAKING PHOTOGRAPHS. I ENJOY LOOKING AT THEM AND THINK YOU MIGHT TOO. HE GAVE ME THE HONOR OF GRACING HIS HOMEPAGE FOR A BIT AND MAKE SURE THAT YOU CHECK OUT HIS CONSTANTLY EVOLVING SECTION OF FRIENDS PHOTOS. HERE IT IS………………. WWW.SLIGHTNOSTALGIA.COM

Thanks to Joe Pease I find another of my shots on the cover of Australia’s SLAM magazine.

Speaking of which I am off to OZ on Monday for a two week Gravis trip.
Should be ripping fun.

There’s always been something about skating on cars that has fascinated me. Maybe it’s from watching 80’s skate videos when I was a kid. It seemed like there was always a car involved, whether it was Gonz doing a 50-50 on the roof of a car at the Savannah Slamma contest or Lance doing a boneless out of the back of a delivery truck in Future Primitive.

Yesterday i went to my old house to clean up some dark room equipment i’ve  had stored  there in the garage since last year.  Among the dusty  boxes of  half exposed boxes of  photo paper and  trash i found two things i wasn’t expecting to find. The first was my  very first T4 camera. Its the old one with  the super scope!  Im not sure why it was there with film in it on shot number one?

These photos of  Jerry Hsu were stuck together in a dried clump of unwashed throwaways  from the last time i printed photos in the garage which was 2 or 3 years ago? when i pulled the pieces apart i found these four different images.
