6/17 LAKERS PARADE! (for LA Weekly)

a beautiful, peaceful, diverse and smiling/cheering/clapping crowd came together for the lakers' parade in downtown los angeles. the parade was ridiculously well organized considering the short amount of time, so one has to wonder how long the lapd has been "secretly" planning the event. haha, probably before the playoffs even began. how's that for lack of respect for the jazz/rockets/nuggets/magic. there have been a lot of debates about the costs of the parade in this economy etc. in the end, la spent $150k or less to bring 250-350,000 people together from all walks of life (not to mention all the revenue those people brought along with them in parking, food, merchandise etc) for a once in a lifetime (or every few years if you are the lakers) celebration that rejuvinated a city. hard to find many negatives in that.

kobe found my lens amidst the chaos to throw up a 4, one for each ring he has (see his puppet hand t-shirt as well). ice cube threw me a different version of the four ring sign.MORE PHOTOS and the LA Weekly article:

6/15 Sailor Jerry @ The Silent Movie Theater

malbon bro's had me come shoot the sailor jerry premiere at the silent movie theater in los angeles, documenting the life of one of the most influential and popular american tattoo artists. free sailor jerry rum was also served, and perhaps due to the 92 proof or the large amounts of tattoos in the crowd the people got DOWN. above, legendary tattoo artist bob roberts and malcolm.
