Stills Crazy After All These Years

For those of you who are into this sort of thing, I’m posting stills from the weekend shoot. While I could tell you that the graininess is a conscious artistic decision to reflect the grittiness of 1980’s cop movies…I actually really need a new camera. Check the pics out...
