I like very much the works of the photographer / artist Nan Goldin. Do you know her?
She always does reportage about her own life (...and what a life!).
I like the way she uses flash, sometime, or natural light and long times.
And also the composition of her images.

Good to hear all is well. LA is ok, getting better. Lots of work and beginning to make some LA friends so all is well. When do you get back into town? We should definitely grab lunch or beers or something. I wanna hear about adventures! 310.614.7016

I accidentally ignored your friend request, but I sent another. How is Hong Kong? Missed you at Annacletos the other night.
