Miles From Nowhere
I just couldn’t find a better way to title my post for today than to steal it from Cat Stevens, one of my favorite singer/songwriters while growing up. The words resonate through the image and tell a simple story not unlike my own; wanderings which find me lost, the answers which arrive in my viewfinder. [...]
Moooving On
A bit different from the landscapes I’ve been posting lately, here’s a minimalist image of cows being herded from one field to another near the base of the Crazy Mountains. Though I’m a fan of dynamic scenes of nature, I also appreciate the simple details of rural life.
Riding the Line
I decided to go back over the images from my trip to the Gravelly Mountains about a month ago and this one grabbed me. Beyond the road, as it applies to today’s title, there is also the dark storm which had been teasing for hours yet never overtaking me. Along its edge I drove for [...]

The Grazers
One last visit into the images from the trip up Shields Valley, this panorama shows most of the Crazy Mountain range and gives an idea of the surrounding landscape. This image was taken a bit earlier in the evening than yesterday’s post. The light was fairly flat across the scene, yet low enough to the [...]
