From a recent photo shoot…

Amateur bodybuilder, Anu McKnight.

Thanks and keep coming back if you "Wanna See More…?"

That’s just me testing out the lights for a photo shoot in a gym.

The gym is Power of Fitness in Palm Desert, California. They actually have a few locations here locally and you can usually find me at the Palm Springs gym. If you aren’t familiar with it, Palm Springs is a desert resort famous as a Hollywood stars getaway in the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s etc.

Well I didn’t, nor did I chow down this burger and fries. Long since on my do not eat list.

But there is a great story about the worst burgers in America on Yahoo Health today…

"Chili’s Smokehouse Bacon Triple-The-Cheese Big Mouth Burger with Jalapeno Ranch Dressing
2,040 calories
150 g fat (53 g saturated)
110 g protein
4,900 mg sodium"

Bad stuff! Check it out, there are some interesting details to go with that burger and others.

So the question is… why I am I out taking photographs of a fire crew getting ready to board an Air Force cargo plane?

And why am I out taking photos of a training aircraft being set on fire with jet fuel?

And what does it have to do with what I do, which is photograph a lot of stories and people about fitness and bodybuilding?

Well, I can’t tell you right now! But let me know what you think, and you will find out soon!

"STF" is a brand new magazine on the stands from the publisher of "Planet Muscle". "The Woman You Want To Be" it says on the cover with Jessica Paxson who is a woman you could want to be. And she is great, I know, I photographed her wedding to Peter Putnam just a couple of years ago.

But it is one big feature inside the magazine I think is very cool. It is seven full pages of training with the 2008 Ms Figure America and my good buddy, Ava Cowan. And even better it is filled with photographs shot by me with Ava right out here by my home in Palm Springs, California at the Power of Fitness gym.

So you will be seeing Ava’s feature along with my photos in "STF" all next year so keep a watch out for it. And the current issue is on the newsstands but I think it is almost close to being sold out. But look for it and let me know what you think!
