Road Trippin'
“The great home of the soul is the open road.”
I love road trips. I especially love solo road trips. Just me and the open road. Audiobooks, real books, music and wandering. Quite simply, there is nothing i’d rather do.
Road trips give me time to reflect, to roam and play. Over the years, the adventures I've enjoyed most are the ones i’ve planned the least. I’ve learned that it’s so important to give yourself room to listen to your intuition and change course or stay put whenever the moment strikes.
“The only real valuable thing is intuition”
One of the reasons I’ve always loved road trips is that it gives me the opportunity to step out of my daily life. This gives me the much needed clarity that gets lost when I’m knee deep-deep in the thick of it at the studio. Doing this gives me the opportunity to assess how things are going in life and if I have the right priorities, values, goals, etc..
So with that being said, here's a little tribute to the open road!
Catheys Valley
Catheys Valley, California
One of my favourite landscapes I’ve shot throughout the years. Maddy and I recently framed this one for our home. This was actually shot on the trip where I proposed to her. I can still feel that sun. Golden sunsets that seem to go on forever. I’ll always love this place and what it means for us. California has had a rough year - let’s hope 2018 is kinder and gentler to her.
Let’s wish the same for us as well.
