Sidi Goma are black Indians from Gujarat. Their roots are in Africa, their spirituality is in Islam, and they were in Tacoma last week for a performance at the Giant Magnet festival. They opened with a traditional call to prayer, and ended with some feisty dancing that seemed far more African than Indian. They can seriously dance their spirituality!
I've been taking photos since well before I constructed my first oatmeal-box pinhole camera back in grade school. And for some years I've done commercial real estate photography.
Now the digital era has found me engaged in a torrid affair with light and shadow, pattern and color and depth. When I walk with friends, I stop at odd times, seeing things that aren't visible to others. I have conversations with the ordinary and thereby discover the extraordinary.
I'm now framing and selling some of my images -- visit RedBubble or Cafepress, or contact me if you see an image you'd like to have for your very own.
