Stumptown Joyride

By Jon Roemer On 24 Feb ’11 · Leave a Comment

Gourmet food trucks are all rage in New York City and this past December Middlebury Magazine asked me to pay a visit to recent graduate David Belanich. David and his partners founded Joyride Trucks, rehabbing a former FedEx delivery van to bring frozen yogurt and Stumptown coffee to the streets of [...]

Ramping Down at Sunup

By Jon Roemer On 23 Feb ’11 · Leave a Comment

This morning, up at 5am, out by 5:45am for an 8am call. This morning’s subject is Judge Denny Chin who won’t be photographed until 10am (but factoring in time to park, get through security, up to his courtroom, and an hour and a half for setup.) This is beating the rush the Jersey [...]

By Jon Roemer On 20 Feb ’11 · 2 Comments

I was at the Met yesterday afternoon to see the the Stieglitz, Steichen, Strand and Guitar Heroes exhibits.

S(3) was great and easily held its own against the contemporary work across the hall. I’m always amazed at how dark prints from this era look but always astounded by the detail, the [...]

Genius

By Jon Roemer On 16 Feb ’11 · Leave a Comment

Inglourious Basterds was a work of genius in my book. The opening scene, filmed like aLeone opening, creating a WWII western in Nazi occupied France – all perfect in the the look, the dialogue, the sound, and the world it created. The movie even works when Bowie’s Cat People comes popping [...]
