A somewhat puzzling obession

For one reason or another, I am drawn to photographing vehicles that I find interesting. This led to a situation during my ninety-three project where I found myself struggling to keep myself from taking even more pictures of vehicles, especially American pick-up trucks from the 70's and 80's. This post is a direct result of that obsessive behavior.

Enjoy.

Sometimes a person goes back to older photographs and finds something that they never really appreciated before. This image was taken while trapped in a car at Lake Cunningham with two friends during one of Nebraska's patented sudden biblical-caliber thunderstorms. It's one of those happy accidents that help define why photography holds so much promise to me.

Day 5: Duluth to Omaha

A drive to Marquette, Michigan was aborted for the same reason I stayed in Duluth an extra day, so my travels came to an end. I made it as far as Port Wing, Wisconsin before being forced to turn around. That part of the state is exactly what I was looking for when I started out on this trip, small lakeshore towns without all the touristy activity.

There's always next time.

Day 4: Duluth

Due to nagging stomach trouble, I ended up holed up in my hotel in Duluth for most of the day today. I ventured out an hour or so before sunset and the entire city had been covered by this very thick fog. It was quite beautiful.
