  • 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…

  • Driving and Crying

    Driving and crying is the title of a song and if I’m not mistaken, a band. I’m happy to be on a roadtrip so you hardly catch me crying. I like turning off the outside and just listening to music as I roll along. These photographs are intended to give you my feelings when I…

  • Some Kind of Night

    Moving. Changes. Life. If you read Storyteller yesterday you know that changes are on my mind. Most for the better. Some not so much. Today, bright and early, I got a reminder of changes. My new phone shows me anything it thinks is important the minute that turn it on. Note that phrase, “anything it…

  • Through The Windshield

    I’m doing a little experimenting. I’d really like for my picture to be on the top of my post rather than on the bottom. I’d also like the picture to have a caption. It doesn’t have to be too long. But, I’d like to identify what’s in the picture. I’d also like to post a…

  • And, On The Fourth of July

    I’m not really a big fireworks kind of guy. So, while I was thinking about what to post today, I came up with the idea of a collection of Americana pictures. So here we go.

  • I posted a picture from one segment of Route 66 yesterday. I thought that I would post another. This time from a very quiet section of the old route which is located in Laguna Pueblo. I like this image because it sort of tells you exactly where you are. You ARE on Route 66. There…

  • Road Work

    I’ve posted about this topic in the past. I make a lot of photographs through the windshield of my car when I am driving. As odd is this may sound, it’s probably safer when I’m driving 70-75-80-85 mph than when I am driving slower and in traffic. Even though I brace the camera on the…

  • Quirky Western Pictures

    When I take road trips, I sort of shape shift as I work. Sometimes I try to make pictures that are a little iconic. Sometimes I try to channel my best Ernst Haas. Sometimes I look for quirky subjects. These images are quirky. There is a little twist to them. Maybe there is a little…

  • Get Your Kicks On Route 66

    When I lived in New Mexico, I used to make a lot of pictures on Route 66. It was an easy “go to.” After all, old Route 66 runs east, west, north and south in Albuquerque. Yes. It’s true. The pre-1937 Route 66 comes down From santa Fe in the north and can be traced…
