The Ones I Like List of 2008 – A Countdown [#4]

fog season – I’m not feeling so hot and don’t currently have the chops to write something interesting, so I’ll let my recent “video,” kindred spirits and big fish, (below) speak to my feelings about going out on the road, exploring new places and seeking out the things that keep me going back for more.
Generally, I had a fun traveling year with highlights that included Asheville, North Carolina; Palm Springs, California; New York City, NY; and Kerrville, Texas (twice). I spent a wonderful 24 hours in Washington D.C. and the loveliest of mornings in Boston, Massachusetts. fog season, chosen as #4 simply because it represents all the elements I love in photography (mornings, fog, autumn, trees, beauty), was a product of my very brief stay in New England as were most of the photos in kindred spirits and big fish.
I plan to travel quite a bit in 2009, hopefully making it to Europe by year’s end. Right now, I have Aspen, Colorado (May) and Boston (October) marked in pen on my calendar. I also have Palm Springs (February/March), somewhere along the mid-atlantic seaboard (April) and New York City (December) marked in pencil on that same calendar. If life treats me really well, I’d like to visit Seattle, Washington (have never been) at some point this year as well as Detroit, Michigan. It’s one of the things I love about being a photographer — always having a work-related excuse to take a vacation.
I want 2009 to be not only about seeing the places, but also about meeting the people — so many photographers whom I have befriended over the past four years, but have never met. So if you’ve been my photographer “pen pal” for the past few years, and if your city is “on the list,” I can’t wait to meet you!
