Michael Rubenstein is a commercial and editorial photographer who’s just returned to a lovely apartment in Brooklyn after spending two and a half years photographing South Asia.

He has assured his doctors this phase will not last much longer. Michael’s work has appeared in Mother Jones, BusinessWeek, Time, Time Asia, The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. Commercial clients include Nike, Wieden and Kennedy, Ogilvy and Yahoo!

  • Lyle Abernathy (left)  born in raised in Yacolt Washington started logging while he was in grade school in 1961. 47 years later he’s still at it with 4 kids and expecting his 20th grandchild shortly he’s a wirey hard working man who has little hope that any of his grandchildren will follow him into the logging business. Of his two sons and two son in laws he’s got an electrician, a mason, an  excavator  and a plumber in the family. Not one of them has followed him into the woods and he doesn’t expect that to change. Lyle’s falling partner is Glen Uskoski also of Yacolt. Glen is in his 20’s and is the exception to the rule in the Southwest Washington logging business where more and more young men are either heading towards the cities for office and trade jobs instead of facing lower wages, less job security and  working in one of the most dangerous jobs in the world.
  • Jeremy Gross walks through  a second generation forest  of a new timber sale near the Good Seed Timber Sale outside of Stevenson Washington.  This forest is scheduled for a regeneration harvest (clear cut) within the next year or two.
  • Will Hart a forester with the Washington Department of Natural Resources stands on a stack of Douglas fir poles on a landing in South West Washington. Mr. Hart is the first of his family to work in the timber business. Hailing from a Chicago suburb he is an environmentalist turned forester with the hope of doing some good on the ground by working with loggers instead of working against them.  (more on will to come when he finally emails me back the questions I’ve sent him. If I don’t hear from him today I’ll call him tonight)
