Went to a retrospective flyer show for !No Clubs!, who’ve booked bands in the #TampaBayArea since 1985. Their first show was Suicidal Tendencies in 1985 and they booked mostly punk & alternative bands at first but then by the 2000s, branched out to embrace all genres. They even put on Fela Kuti and Sunny Ade. Belching Penguin was an 80s hardcore band from Bradenton, #Florida, and the first release on No Clubs record label. It was my friend’s very first #punk show he ever went to in high school. https://noclubs.com/about-2/

Spotted at the local record shop: “Music” magazine from 1987, #TampaBayArea. On the cover are musicians of local alternative bands featured on a compilation record that had just come out that year. Features articles about both local and national bands, record reviews, ads for local music shops, etc.

For #throwbackthursday not going too far back. From October 2024 in Downtown St. Petersburg, FL just days after #hurricanemilton blew through. The storm's fierce winds caused this construction crane to collapse and fall on a building across the street, I happened to be able to get these shots showing the scene. Taken w/#fujixt3 and #tamron18300mmf3563 lens. #stpete #stpetersburg #florida #tampabayarea #aftermath #stormdamage #naturaldisaster #crane #collapse #construction #constructionsite #damage #fallen #streetphotography #streetscenes #urban #urbanscenes #photojournalism #documentaryphotography #photo #photography #fujifilm #tamron

Bit of a #throwbackthursday post w/Vikki from September of 2022. A little #trashthedress action amidst an #epicsunset, with an epic #wethairflip thrown in for good measure. Taken w/#fujixt3 and #viltrox85mmf18 #primelens (128mm full frame equivalent field of view). Settings: ISO 160, f/1.8, 1/250. Strobist info: single #godoxad200 w/round head attachment at slight camera right, unmodified at 1/4 power. #epic #goldenhour #magichour #sunset #sky #firesky #warm #water #wet #dress #floridasunsets #sunsetlover #model #blonde #portrait #portraitphotography #portraitphotographer #photography #photo #bokeh #florida #tampabayarea #strobist #offcameraflash #ocf #roundheadflash #fujifilm #viltrox #godox #floridaphotographer #floridamodel

Vintage 60's/70's hippie vibes w/Ginger at the #floridabotanicalgardens. The hippie-esque outfit/vibes warranted post processing this shot (and others from the set) in that matte style that was common and popular for much of the 60's and 70's to recreate the style/look of the era as best as possible. #vintage #matte #mattelook #vintagestyle #retrostyle #hippie #hippiegirl #60s #70s #retro #model #fashionmodel #classicaesthetic #60sfashion #70sfashion #photography #fashionphotography #portraitphotography #fujifilm #fujixt3 #fuji1655mmf28 #naturallight #naturallightphotography #naturallightphoto #aperturepriority #largo #florida #tampabayarea

Not too often that I get to do something with a #malemodel but it's a nice switch up when the opportunity arises. With Landen at Fort DeSoto's North Beach. Taken with #fujixt3 and #fuji50140mmf28 lens. Settings: 50mm (75mm full frame equivalent), ISO 160, f/4, 1/1400 in #aperturepriority mode using #naturallight only. #malemodels #model #shirtless #muscle #athletic #boysofsummer #beach #warm #summervibes #summer #portrait #maleportrait #photography #photo #portraitphotography #glamourphotography #fujifilm #naturallightphotography #telephotolens #fortdesotopark #fortdesoto #tierraverde #florida #tampabayarea

One of the reasons I love #infraredphotography as much as I do is its ability to turn the normally mundane completely on its head, such as how it rendered this small patch of brush at the north end of #fortdesotopark. In normal light, it's unremarkable but #ir changes that, turning it into something otherworldly. Taken w/converted #fujixt30 and #fuji23mmf2 lens. #infrared #dreamy #surreal #convertedcamera #primelens #vegetation #beach #invisiblelight #falsecolor #experimentalphotography #experimentalphotographer #photo #photography #fortdesoto #tierraverde #florida #tampabay #tampabayarea #floridaphotographers

Bit of a #throwbackthursday post: From 2019 w/the stunning Ms. Rikki Lynn at Sand Key Beach in Clearwater, FL.
