privacy curtain

You know how sometimes you pull into a little town and it seems friendly and you think about stopping for lunch or a coffee so you can have little bit of time chatting with the locals? And then later you check VBRO because it seems like maybe you’d like to go back for a long weekend and you wonder what your options are?

This town is…not that sort of place.

pivots around water

A lot of farms around here are irrigated by center-pivot systems and their spindly frames and slow-motion circles are familiar sights. But for some reason, getting to see one in operation right next to the road is a rare thing; when my photographer friends and I saw this one, of course we stopped (after making the traditional u-turn) to get a closer look.

And photographs. We also got photographs.

4 hearts

It looked like the church had had a Valentine’s dinner that weekend and decided the decorations were festive enough to leave up for a few more days.

the ghost bike

I got my photographic start by making images of roadside crosses and other memorials, and the habit of scanning roadsides and looking for memorials has never really left. I don’t always stop these days, but every now and then I see one that needs my attention.

This was one of them.
