Guest Blog: Jeff Hawe

My buddy Jeff Hawe had a photo show in Helena recently…here’s his email and some photos.

Hey Liam,

I put a few pics into a folder from my show in helena. if you can post a little something on your blog that would be sweet i’d be so stoked….anyway the opening party for the show was friday the 14th of Nov. which coincided with the one year birthday of Papu’s store Four O Six. so there was a celebration of that too, which is what the photo with all the cups raised is all about. the photos i chose were taken either last winter here in the U.S. or from the winter i spent down in NZed. I printed five different action shots really large (60 inches long side) and several vertical landscapes really large as well (80 inches long side). The show overall was a mixture of really large prints, and smaller prints grouped together in three different series. The photos were of action shots, landscapes found while out n about, the lifestyle of snowboarding, and the faces of people that shred. All the prints were simply hung on the wall from wooden dowells, no glass, keeping it simple (and cheap, haha).

So anyways, too bad you can’t take it in with your own eyes. I think it would stoke you out, it really pumped me up to see these up on the wall! Some pictures just really come alive when they are this big right in front of your eyes!
