This is Dennis. He is a first generation Mexican-American with light blue eyes. When I knew him he lived in his van and worked at an organic juice bar in Venice Beach, concocting special combinations to heal his customer's insides and outsides. He is a talented cook, too.

I don't take too many close up portraits but I've snapped a few that I think came out pretty well. This image is of a friend's daughter. She was thirteen or fourteen at the time. I like this photo because she seems particularly serene and mature for her age. Her features are interesting as well, perhaps in part because of her 1/4 Polynesian ancestry.

Two new jobs, plus contract work, plus new scanner I didn't know how to work = no blogging from Gazelle the last month. I'm back, though a bit frazzled.
