The more I know about a class of objects, the more I appreciate his photographs of them. I suppose it's like that basic test for humorous writing about some subject: the more you know about the subject, the funnier it gets.

We'll actually be down in CA this weekend, but since we'll be working on the house so it can go up for sale, probably no time for the beach....

Clumsy link but see -

I have seveal coffee table books of his work, he is highly entertaining, if a little strange.
The shot of the iris leaves and rowen berries on the lake, he complains about the fish coming up beneath the installation and eating the berries before he's finshed.
And he famously held some of his ice sculptures together by peeing on them.
