What boredom looks like: photographer as passenger
My Patient Spouse will back me up on this: I am a TERRIBLE passenger on road trips.
I get bored pretty fast. And when I get bored….well, you don’t need to know really a lot of details about that. Other than one of the things I do is take random photos out the window.

Well, the sign you got was pretty interesting. I’m betting half the reason you get bored is because Patient Spouse probably drives in straight lines and doesn’t see the need for U-turns every 30 seconds or so, amirite? 😀

Yes. Everything you said is correct. We were in his vehicle (a pickup that I don’t like driving) instead of my vehicle (which is the one we drove to Colorado). Otherwise, well, you know….

Thanks, Kate. I wish I could claim (without lying) that I’d planned this shot and was just waiting for an especially interesting billboard and reflection. But I can’t…
Good to see you here again! Hope all’s well with you.

Starting to slowly creep back into the light after a few difficult months. Things are looking positive from here, thanks Melinda!

I’ve got a bit of a series of such shots, now that I think about it. Like this one – https://melindagreenharvey.com/2012/09/01/september-1/. The narrative, although a few years old by now, is still the way my mind works. (I hope it doesn’t frighten you.)
