last week our fair city of angels was graced with the presence of jonathan saunders, who brought a shotgun with him. ignoring the fact that we’re a bunch of bleeding heart liberals out here, he somehow managed to convince a few of his photographer friends to travel to sylmar and shoot at fluorescent pink clay targets. i abstained from handling shotguns, but was happy to watch jonathan and joe toreno have at it (below).
not typically known for his good cheer, jonathan was downright gleeful handling a shotgun, so that was nice to see. he hit the first two targets he shot at which is good enough for me to remain impressed. really, the best angle to photograph from would be right in front while he’s shooting but i’m not that brave yet. maybe next time. i managed to pocket one of the empty shells as a souvenir, though.
later in the week we went bowling. i haven’t bowled that badly in twenty five years. but thanks to jonathan for hanging out, and for providing entertaining stories about people i kind of know. it’s a weird world out there.
