Abduction
When driving for long periods of time across vast sections of the Texas plains, you start to get a bit punch-drunk after awhile. This was one of those instances and I’d pulled over to stretch the legs and get some fresh air. I hadn’t even seen a light, another car, nothing.. for several hours. So, [...]
Forgotten Walls
The limestone walls of the Monument Rocks, also known as the Chalk Pyramids are located in the mode unlikely place: Kansas. Yes, that Kansas! Having spent a day and half here, admiring the beauty and tranquility of this place, I can safely say that I felt like “I wasn’t in Kansas anymore”.
Turret At Night
Most of the night I was battling thick cloud cover but after about 3a.m., the clouds finally broke down a bit and made for some interesting compositions as seen here over Turret Arch. I lit this with a gelled, and gridded speedlight.
Spin The Night
As many of you know, I have a thing for old windmills. I found this one by accident along a dark stretch of open road in the middle of Texas. I’d pulled over to use the err.. restroom, when I noticed this eery sounds coming from the other side of the road. As I approached, [...]
Moonflowers
These are part of a road-side art display outside of a little town called St. Jo. To this day, nobody knows who the actual artist is. These “Moonflowers” are actually old Pratt Whitney engines from an airplane, mounted on old oil field pipes. I’d shot this scene a few times but I’ve always had very [...]
Time Tree
This was a tree that I sort of stumbled upon while hiking around in Arches National Park, in the dark. I saw it’s silhouette against the light pollution of Moab in the background and coupled with the rising Milky Way on the horizon, I knew it would make for a dramatic scene. I’d battled fast [...]
Lone Tree Hill
There were actually other trees around, but I thought the name suited the image here. This was shot on a night with about 3/4 moon light so it was pretty easy to make my away around the fields. The only thing to bump into was Longhorn cattle. It was a beautiful night and the trees [...]
Chicken Corner
This was shot down the road from Pilgrim’s Pride chicken and turkey processing plant. I was driving and saw a neat framing by the trees and decided to pull over and shoot it. As I had my tripod in the middle of the road, a truck coming the other way, just over the hill, triggered [...]
Rollin’ on the river
Shot from atop the ridge overlooking the Under The Hill Saloon in Natchez, MS.
Stick in the mud
Just loved the colors and the quality of the light as the sun dropped below the horizon. Shot at ƒ1.2 which is a bit tough to nail focus, but I got lucky here.
