Winter 2009



[Above] The Trail to Devil's Pulpit, Monument Mountain/Squaw Peak
Great Barrington, Massachusetts

Winter is always slow for photography, but the endless days of gray light provide me with ample time to focus on writing and design. I have a bunch of photo projects planned for the next few months: publishing, film projects, and video production. Design is in full swing too. Stay tuned. Have a safe and happy new years.

Silence Falling

[Below] Pond Ice, 5 Rivers, Delmar, New York

Standing outside the Blue Plate Restaurant in Chatham, NY shooting friends Brain and Marcy on their wedding day is probably one of the most memorable wedding images I've captured this year. The season's first snow had left the town deserted and under a blanket of silence only possible with falling snow. The pink skies and gentle static of snowflakes piling in on top on one another always reminds me of sledding at Troy's Frear Park as a child.

The image below is that storm's aftermath. Tonight, I sit here listening to NOAA and it seems as though the freight train of winter storms has begun for New England.

The Night Mission


[Above] Hedley Park Place, River Street, Troy, New York
I love Sunday nights for landscape photography. All the parking lots are empty and traffic is usually light. I shot this image from a small gate balcony on the Green Island Bridge. Winds were minimal and the moon was just right. I never realized how much vibration is transmitted through the bridge deck last night. It really put the vibration reduction lens to the test.

@johnbulmer: Power* restored. @Killswitchmag and Revolution 7 Creative are back online. Now, on to that coffee I have been wanting since 4AM!

*[IMO, there is nothing more depressing than a power outage. The lack man-made sounds is unsettling. The house feels lifeless. I am lost without my constant stream in news, tweets, Facebook updates, and RSS feeds. Just goes to show how fragile and dependent we (more specifially, I) have become on technology.]

* [Lost track of how many times I have been hassled by uninformed people for taking photos in public. Funny thing is, every time this happens, I go home and do a Google image search of whatever I was shooting. The search results are usually in the thousands. If I were trying to be stealthy, I am sure as hell not going to be walking around with a 300mm lens and camera bag.

Waypoint: Nauset Beach


Top: Stairs to Nauset Beach, Orleans, Massachusetts
Below: Local Landmark: Liam's at Nauset Beach, Orleans, Massachusetts

Nauset Beach is one of my personal waypoints. It was the place where I first laid eyes on the ocean. And every time I drive down the access road that leads to the toll booth, I relive that childhood morning. Vividly.

Nauset Fog

Nauset Light Beach, Eastham, Massachusetts

I love the creepy, socked in mornings along the Cape Cod coast. The fog makes the cement colored water look all the more foreboding. The line ups are virtually empty. If you want some water time, you have to have the dedication and a hearty appetite for ice cream headaches.

How to be a better client.


If you are a web/print/mx designer, you have no doubt been faced with this infuriating and insulting situation. Not to mention the tidal wave of self taught design poseurs and vampires looking for something for nothing. Yes indeed, it's good to be a designer gangsta.

One last gift from the gods of Summer


[Above] Images from the trail to the Tip of the Tongue
Tongue Mountain Range, Adirondack Park, New York

Got one last gift from the gods of summer today. Mid 60's in the high peaks region of the Adirondack Park just three weeks from December. It was a gift that was not squandered. Above are some casual images from today's hike. Probably the like the past warm waypoint until the snow thaws next spring.

The Continuum Project


[Above] John Bulmer/Revolution 7 has designed the packaging and posters for Alstrin Film's forthcoming film The Continuum Project. The Continuum Project ships November 27th. Click here to order.

About the Continuum Project (content from www.alstrinfilms.com): Shot entirely in High Definition, watch as Guy Lacelle, Audrey Gariepy and Mathieu Audibert establish terrifying new ice routes in Norway and Rob Pizem and Mike Anderson crush brawny off-widths and delicate face climbing in Zion. Get on route with Ines Papert and Cory Richards as they blitz Kwangde Shar in Nepal and witness Majka Burhardt and Sarah Watson free the Beckey Route on Elephant’s Perch in the Sawtooths. Discover the rewards and risks of exploration with Jon Walsh and Ian Welsted as they establish a beautiful new mixed line in the remote Icefall Brook range of British Columbia and cool down on the difficult sport routes of Lions Head in Ontario with Sam Elias, Emily Harrington, Leslie Timms and Lauren Lee.

Extending the focus of Higher Ground, gain new perspective on the motivations and courage of some of the world’s top climbers through the superb cinematography and innovative approach of The Continuum Project.

The Edges of Cornfields



[Above] Car, Greenwich, New York

Old cars at the edges of cornfields. The once loved. Now on blocks. Becoming part of the landscape. How many babies home from the hospital? How many drive-in's? How many miles driven out of boredom? After all these years of snowstorms and summer sun, the lines still have charm. Much more charming than a Chevy AstroVan half-lifing into the soil. Monuments to other things. Other times. Some better, some worse. You never imagine the things of your present life as the junk of the future.
