new posts coming here tomorrow…new Dialogue….new Essay…yes, i am very busy over on RIOBOOK but very busy here as well….i just cannot be here in comments much….by the way, good chats going on over there…come hang if you can..and by the way the $1.99 is not about the money…it about what we all talk about here all the time…PRESERVING what we do here as a unit….as a whole…at the end of this month the RIOBOOK will be a diary , an object, to be viewed for its own being later on..a singular experience….here we lose it all…anyway, we might even make an inexpensive printout of the whole process…anyway, thinking thinking

cheers, david

I just got on the RIO train last night, very excited to follow along…I shall travel vicariously through the work of David Alan Harvey! Dig your toes in the sand and have a cold one for me!

The Book is going to be great!

Best, Jeremy

So, NatGeo sent you there in Feb 2010. The RIO Issue is scheduled on May 2012 as you said here, two an a half year after… for a single reportage, not a big and handsome book.
That is an average NG delay to make/write the feature/issue?
And second how you can “live” with it, I mean, is so, so far in the future that you almost forget about it.

Muchas Thanks
Enjoy Rio

PS: Maybe patience is the key…
PS1: You are a great inspiration to me, since 1996 (I was 16) when I discovered your images.

are you going to Greece now? we were thinking of bringing you here to document Diego’s 40th birthday party in Rio…..Diego might not even be here…..i told him no matter…there was going to be a big Happy 40th Diego no matter if he was there or not!! that ought to bring him..cause he knows damn well i will have a big party in his honor without him..for sure…so he will not want to miss it….i am pretty sneaky , yes??

cheers, david

The thing I carry always is a silver dollar coin my mother gave me about 15 years ago. It never leaves my wallet.

Nice one! :-)

I say goodbye with this quote of Gary KLEIN:

“Biking is about rhythm and flow. It’s the wind in you face and the challenge of hammering up along hill. It’s the reward at the top and the thrill of a high-speed descent. Biking lets you come alive in both body and spirit. After awhile the bike disappears beneath you and you feel as if you’re suspended in midair. ”

PS: Panos take a look to the French Bike Polo Championship 2010 gallery. I went there last year, amazing: http://www.patricio-michelin.com/polo
