This shot was taken in Bellow's
Falls, VT. I was touring Vermont to get a look at some of the tiny,
quiet towns grown quieter with the recession of industry. I was
standing outside the window... and what great results! |
|
Here is Boston, by far my favorite
capital. This was taken from a boat, a "sunset
cruise". The boat was shaped like a cracker box and quite a
disappointment, but I would not have traded this shot for anything! |

This is the French Quarter
in New Orleans, one of the first stops Danielle and I made on our
"epic" journey. The whole city is inspiring... but also
highly photographed, and who wants to be a cliche?
|
| This was taken in
Tucson, AZ; (stop #2) it is Danielle's brother's cat... he makes a
great silhouette. |

Sedona, Arizona has
some amazing red rock formations; this one is by far my favorite, the
Coffee Pot Rock. It is shaped like an old coffee carafe! It
even has, approprietly enough, a breakfast restaurant called Coffee Pot
Restaurant, which has this monument looming above it! |
| This was taken on the
coast of California, in Mendocino. A very rough and beautiful shore. |
 |
 |
And here is a winery we
saw on the way... beauty and free wine, did we die and go to heaven? |
| I went alone to see the
redwoods. When you stand beneath them, you feel so small yet
blessed. I had to hike through small trees to see the big grandmas,
and when I rounded the corner for a first full vision of the amazing
trees, I actually started to cry, it was that beautiful. I admit I
am a tree hugger. Trees like to be hugged! |

Here are some dunes and
sand in Death Valley. It is where the dunes are that it is the
hottest, being the lowest elevation, a few hundred feet below sea
level. I stayed out on those dunes until the darkness came and the
moon rose. How incredible, that place! |
| I was in Santa Monica,
Venice, and Malibu for a few days. The whole area stayed foggy until
almost precisely noon, most days. I loved the opportunities for
mystery and elegance. |

This is the painted
desert, which is near the Petrified Forest in Arizona. It really is
painted, much like Death Valley is! |
| And here is my beloved
East Coast. This light house is in Salem, Massachusetts. |
