Getting There
They say the journey is as important as the destination. I don’t know who “they” are, but on domestic trips they are right. Traveling internationally is a series of trips rolled into one when you mostly don’t see anything anyway. But, road trips, whether they are by car, train, bus or truck, are when I…

The Pictures of April
Looking at this wall of color impresses even me. Given my numbers for April I’m not sure about anybody else. But, no matter, I had fun making these photographs. I surely knocked off a lot of rust and I started to see again. I saw small things, light, color and things I would have missed…

Deeper Than Dreams
Thoughts that cross my mind. Not everyday, but more often than not during our pandemic times. There’s another random thought that crossed my mind. “Pandemic Times.” A good name for a newspaper in these non-newspaper days. Anyway, back to the topic at hand. Lately, my thoughts have been roaming and random. Like the one above,…

Beyond The End
Light. It’s all light. That’s what makes or breaks a photograph. After all, the word photography is Greek for writing with light. No. It’s not all Greek to me. I actually know this word. Hurricane Delta passed us by for the most part. We did have some strong gusts of wind and a little rain.…

NSU
Driving. Motion. Movement. The combination of others moving and my own motion helped to create some kind of impressionistic art. And, a lot of Ws. I reckon that the Ws were created by NOLA’s potholed streets. Hit a hole and down the car goes. So too, with the other cars around me. Up. Down. Up.…

Red Cars
Seriously. Before you read any further, open the picture. Then, you’ll understand the caption. I never knew that Jesus had a car club. Or, that Jesus even had a car. Hmmm… I’ll have to go read up on this new development. I have to admit. He’d have looked pretty good cruising around in that beast…

Cadillac Farm
You’ve heard of Cadillac Ranch, yes? If not, it’s a group of Cadillacs half buried along Interstate 40 located in West Texas. Just west of Amarillo. You can also say located on Route 66, if you prefer. They are placed in a straight line that some say are pointed in the same angle as the Great Pyramid at…
