Looking down into the quiet and colorful Escalante Wilderness Area.

Escalante, UT.

Interesting community with several historical buildings and friendly people along with a short drive to the slick rock area makes this town very attractive.

Chimayo, New Mexico is, for me, one of the most meaningful locations in the world. Here I am able to relax, reflect and recover. Sorry about the absence. After much effort the digital imaging room is almost up to speed - lacking only a printer. Will continue to post in the coming days.

Somewhere in Kansas

I didn't see it coming-black ice. Now I'm handicapped -in a wheelchair-for life.

White Door

New entrance for an old building.

Paris

A long time ago-but true today.

Opportunity for Change.

You will find the newer images to be a bit different than they have been in the past. Rather than using a traditional documentary approach, I will attempt to be more personal. The newer images will not be about place. They will reflect an inner event rather than an exterior presentation.

Richmond, Indiana

No photograph today- I am not going to be posting again until the beginning of October. Need some time to reflect and plan. Please check the blog in October.

Northwest of Richmond, Indiana

Unused bank barn located between Richmond and Centerville, Indiana. Stopped my truck along the side of the road, jumped out, took quick photograph and returned to the truck. Before I could drive away the sheriff appeared and asked - in the Midwest way- How can I help you? This really means- what the "heck" are you doing? Welcome to the new American way of life.

Richmond, Indiana

This flock of red flamingos showed up in the front yard yesterday afternoon. Gathering to fly south for the winter?

Perhaps Indiana should be called the flag state.

Along the way to the waterfall (yesterdays image).

Bryce National Park is closed to private vehicles. Shuttle buses move people about the main part of the park. This waterfall is in the southeastern part of the park. Acess is gained by walking a short distance from the highway to the stream and waterfall.
