And there's a new episode of "The Nanny," which I shot after I was supposed to not be alive.
That's the story behind these photographs, which I shot inside "Rain Room," one of the show's exhibitions, a large-scale interactive environment created by the design studio Random International.

I also took note of the skillful way Daly constructed brush piles to steer deer this way or that, under the stands like the one from which I shot my deer with my compound bow that morning.
But I actually do my best in the ballroom scenes, which I shot with Visconti's The Leopard in mind, to make things erotic – the touching of a hand on a shoulder or a waist or neck.

In the video above, which I shot outside the conference, he touches upon these topics.
