Alabama Jacks

It’s time to switch it up and move to other material then Palouse images. I have plenty more of great Palouse images and you’ll see those over the coming weeks. A few weeks ago I took a holiday with my oldest son and traveled from Naples area to the FL Keys together. It was an extremely good time. One of the stops we made while traveling through the Keys was a bar known as Alabama Jacks. Great food right on the water the place had a special kind of charm. I have my iPhone with me so I shot a fe images and then worked on them on my iPad. Here’s one of my favorites.

Old Truck

Palouse truck — Truck In A Garage, Palouse, WA

The Palouse is full of old trucks. Vary rarely though do you happen to find a garage where you find an old 1940’s vintage truck just siting there like it was parked yesterday. This one place I found was completely untouched with magazines dating to 1945. Kind of amazing it has lasted this long. Anyway I took a lot of images in this garage. This is a shot where I worked on it a bit to make it feel older. I hope to soon be sharing some of the dramatic landscape images.

Light Bulb

One of the cool things about the Palouse is there are a lot of old things just left sitting out. I found an old barn and in this barn was an old truck, tools and all sorts of cool stuff. Magazines dated back to 1945. What a place. I shot the heck out of this place and you will see more photos. This one is so simple it works. A light bulb. An old light hanging from the ceiling. I hope you like the subtly of it.

This Is The Palouse

The above image pretty much says it all about the Palouse. I head home after a week here shooting and leading a PODAS workshop. It was a lot of fun. We had 28 attendees from around the world and made some new friends. Photography open so many doors and it so much fun to meet people who have the same passion. What a great week.

Harvest Time

I am about to leave the Palouse after a terrific workshop. The attendees were great and the photography was outstanding. So much fun and a lot of great new friends. I don’t even know where to begin to describe this event and the images made during the event. All good. You’ll se more here over the coming weeks. Today’s image is what the Palouse is all about. The harvest of wheat and other crops. It is an amazing place and you just have to explore it, take a dirt road and see where it leads you. The light is magical and the landscape goes on forever. Check out the PODAS blog for more pictures. Www.podas.info

This very nice and interesting man has built an old time Texaco gas station out in the middle of no where. There are old cars, old gas pumps and other cool stuff. This is the from of one of the old cars. There are so many good images coming out of this trip. I’ll have more soon.

Simple Does It

I have arrived in the Palouse. I picked up some of the instructors for the workshop and we went shooting. When in the Palouse sometimes it is the simple shot that just works. A week of photography in a beautiful area at harvest time. How cool is that!!!

The Palouse

Tucked away in the Southeast corner of Washington is an area known as the Palouse. It is roughly a three country region of the most fertile soil in america. It’s also a photographers paradise. Gently rolling hills, big skies, farmland, plowed fields as far as the eye can see. Throw in old barns, lonely trees and abandoned properties and you have a place that a photographer loves. I am leading a PODAS Photography Workshop in the region for the next week. There are 28 attendees and with staff and wives I am guiding 40 people. I have a team of great instructors and staff. I’ll try to post an new image from the thrip each day. Here is an image then on a trip in the spring. You can also follow this trip in more detail BY CLICKING HERE.

Red Light

Las Vegas, neon boneyard — Red Light, Neon Graveyard, Las Vegas, NV

A quick update, tomorrow I head out for an 8 day adventure in the Palouse. This is a region in SE Washington state that is a very beautiful area to shoot landscape pictures. I’ll be leading a PODAS workshop there with 28 attendees and 5 great instructors. I’ll update my blogs as often as I can. So starting tomorrow look for PODAS Palouse images. You can follow our blog for this trip at the PODAS Blog by clicking here. The blog will begin on Wed.

Today’s picture was made in the Neon Graveyard in Las Vegas, where old signs from the strip go where they are torn down. I focused on a red light bulb and then enhanced it in a few apps on the iPad. Kind of different so I thought I would share.

Another View

sunset pano — Sunset Pano, August 2011, Marathon, FL

The other day I post a spectacular sunset shot. Today I post the pano version of the same sunset. My son and I were driving down the US1 Highway in the FL, Keys heading to Marathon. We had to pull over and shoot this. iPhone shot stitched and then enhances a bit on the iPad. This stuff is so much fun.
