  • Another Way

    I know that I told you I was working on improving images from New Orleans. And, I am. It has become a production process that takes a lot of intensity and focus. Sure, I take breaks. But, sometimes my head gets foggy. So. If I want to continue working on something I play around and…

  • Can I Keep It?

    I found this train. They wouldn’t let me keep it. There used to be a broken down old shed in Jefferson Parish. Oschner Hospital converted it into their clinic space. The first time I went there to see my doctor, this is what I saw. Eventually, the hospital installed a fence and moved the old…

  • About A Half A Tank

    That’s just about how much gas it takes to get to this forlorn place from Albuquerque if you are driving.I found this place. I made a few pictures and kept going until I came to the next place like you do. This is not a new picture, but it is one that I like. Aside…

  • Flying Along

    A fter reading Storyteller, many of you know I like blurry motion pictures. I try not to publish too many of them because, you know, you’d get bored. For that matter it’s the same reason musicians playing a concert don’t play five or six fast songs in a row. They — and me — try…

But, what he doesn’t realize is that this better work out for me because if it doesn’t he’ll have nothing but problems since WordPress is changing everything. One helper told me that since technology has changed over the years…

  • Albuquerque

    A ll aboard. I love trains. I started riding them when I was about five years old. We would travel from Los Angeles to New York on Santa Fe’s El Capitan and we changed trains for one of the New Central System trains and eventually for a Penn Central train when the former competitors merged.…

  • Rolling

    A nother experiment and another morning nap. There’s a reason for both. It’s my nature to experiment even when the picture gets a little bleak. The other is something that makes me nervous. You know about my back and hip problems. I’ve been feeling good for a while. Yesterday I seemed to collapse. Everything went…

  • Another Day, Another Mistake

    W hen I was a young child my family used to travel from Long Beach, California to Brooklyn, New York. In those days we either took Santa Fe’s El Capitain or Super Chief. Those were the days. The food was great. The cars were luxurious. The staff was helpful and friendly. Though the ride was…

  • Naked To The Eye

    Sometimes, there’s no winning. I couldn’t do it yesterday so I shut the conversation down. I couldn’t get through. Everything was an excuse. Or, a weird kind of arrogance. I have no use for that. Oh well. Another war lost. One I shouldn’t have fought. These two pictures are of the same location. They were…
