POTD

Art in Passing #17 Salt Lake City, Utah 2012

I only take photos of people at art shows when things are slow in my booth. I ended up with so many from Salt Lake City it’s hard to believe it was my best show of the year, but even at good shows there is a lot of down time. I guess that explains why even at the good shows I spend a lot of time wondering what I’m doing there.]]>

Art in Passing #16 Salt Lake City, Utah 2012

Another hooligan shot along with some more interesting body language.

Art in Passing #15 Salt Lake City, Utah 2012

Another shot from the Salt Lake City art show. A lot going on here from the scowling tattooed lady to the ice cream eaters (also seen in an earlier POTD) to the two women peeking at something around the corner in the next booth.]]>

Ya At Eeh Monument Valley, Utah 2002

Another strange looking POTD title; O.K. maybe not to everyone as it is the correct spelling (minus a bunch of accent marks) for how to say hello in Navajo. (Literally it means “it is good” or “it is well.”)]]>

Tucum Ar Tucumcari, New Mexico 2002

I wonder how many more letters this old train station has lost in the last ten years.

Burning Question Adrian, Texas 2002

Another strange sign sighting along Route 66.

Pig on a Stick Adrian, Texas 2002

I’ve been traveling in the WABAC machine again, this time to Adrian, Texas where apparently someone with a sense of humor and some time on their hands lives (or lived). Andrian is the half-way point between Chicago and Santa Monica, CA on Route 66.]]>

The Well-Informed Gargoyle Bozeman, Montana 2012

This guy is from a less exotic location (a bookend in my studio) than yesterday’s gargoyles. With his nose in a book, I hope he’s reading up on responsible voting rather than some dark spell–unless that spell is intended to influence the voting next week in a positive way, i.e., the way I’d like to see things turn out. But if that were the case, I guess at least from my point of view it wouldn’t be a dark spell at all.]]>

Happy Halloween! Paris, France 2002

I was spending some time in the WABAC Machine (a.k.a. in my case as the many folders of old photos on my hard drive) and came across this from my photos of Paris ten years ago. (“Mr. Sherman, set the WABAC machine to Paris in 2002.”) It was taken with my first ever digital camera, a 5mp Sony F707, a very advanced camera in it’s time. Anyway, it seemed appropriate for Halloween. Note, if all this WABAC stuff makes sense to you then, well, you’re probably as ancient as I am. Actually I always thought of it as just the Wayback Machine. It wasn’t until I read about it on Wikipedia that I realized it was a reference to early computers such as the UNIVAC. I wonder if I knew that back then; probably not as I would not likely have cared about such things when I was nine or ten.]]>

The Gulf Las Vegas, Nevada 2012

It might as well be a mile between them.
