bear grylls

working for US Runners World I was stoked to meet all action adventure hero and survival specialist Bear Grylls.

It rained, rained and then rained a bit more….

There was a film crew shooting BTS of the photo shoot and I got to play in Bear’s den where he had some awesome props like the paramotor he strapped to his back and flew over the Himalayas.

Total respect….makes my job look like a walk in the park.

graphics, graffiti, nyc and nigel sylvester

collating my images for a self published book of nyc urban portraits and couldn’t resist posting these – one of which includes bmx legend Nigel Sylvester
Took some action shots as well but I just preferred the graphics of this simple straight on – even if it was a bugger of a shot to compose!!!
