Trooper Needs a Home

This afternoon, I stopped into a Petco located on the north side of Union Square. In the back of this store, they regularly have fifteen to twenty cats looking for a new home.

There is always a nice selection of cats to play with, but today they had one cage with a beautiful little kitten named Trooper. As you can see from these pictures, he is very sad to be stuck in a cage.






If you are looking to adopt a cat, you would be hard-pressed to find one as wonderful as Trooper.

I'm quite sure that it would make him very happy to find a permanent home and a new friend.




Petco is located at 860 Broadway. What are you waiting for??

The Dumont Dunes

We just finished up a PSA for The Wounded Warrior Project.

On the last day of the shoot, we found ourselves filming the logo shot at the base of the Dumont Dunes ... a few miles east of Death Valley, CA.




Here are a couple pictures of my camera position.






The Canon EOS-1D Mark IV under my charge was sporting a truly amazing Canon 600mm F/4 IS prime lens (Thanks to Canon USA).

Due to the 112 degree desert heat, the camera body needed to periodically be covered with ice packs to keep it cool.

As we focused our lenses on the two soldiers, nearly a half mile away, both the Director and I were left with an eerie feeling of what it must feel like to be on the battlefield.

I look forward to seeing the final cut.
