A massive storm gets ready to unleash its awesome power over an outback road in Western Australia.
Again, continually obsessed with the Italian signage and autostrades – and then all of a sudden this landscape just cried out to me. It was so perfect, just the way I like it – sparse, remote, golden and with a hint of industry driving past. I waited, risking a small amount of life and death, waiting for the right vehicle to drive past – could not have asked for anything better as this truck with perfect streamlined graphics appeared matching perfectly with the blue sign and all. I’m done!

I’m still fascinated with European road signage… we just don’t get this colour palette in Australia.
Most people don’t die until the last moment; others start twenty years in advance, sometimes more. Those are the unfortunates. Louis Ferdinand Céline (1894-1961)
I took this photo on 07/13/06 on a vacation with my husband; we began in Redding, CA went over to the Northern CA coast and headed north…. went clear up to Tillamook, Oregon. We followed the shoreline all the way, on this wonderfully scenic trip. This is just one of many images which I am pleased to be able to share; I hope you enjoy….. / / / ___ / All The Materials Contained May Not Be Reproduced, Copied, Edited, Published, Transmitted Or Uploaded In Any Way Without My Permission.

Built in 1936 at MP 141.68, just south of Newport is one of several toll-free bridges forming a part of the Oregon coast highway, US 101. This bridge is located in the city of Newport. YAQUINA BAY (NEWPORT) BRIDGE / The structure is a combination of both steel and concrete arches. The main span of the 3,223-feet structure is a 600-foot steel through arch flanked by two 350-foot steel deck arches. There are five reinforced concrete deck arch secondary spans on the south end of the steel arches and fifteen concrete deck girder approach spans. Decorative elements include ornamental spandrel deck railing brackets, fluted entrance pylons, and a pedestrian plaza with elaborate stairways leading to observation areas. / (Excerpt from: Oregon Department of Transportation, Oregon Coastal Highway Bridges) / / This is the image on the egov.Oregon.gov webpage.
We’re all looking for a sign (every now and then), this is where I want to be – in a pure minimal landscape… oh, and that also sells Italian food!

Many thanks to Geoff Coleman for graciously lending me his lightening bolt to create this image. He hasn’t seen it yet so I hope he likes it! The highway image was taken on our trek across the Nullabor Plain when we moved from WA to Tasmania, on the part where there is not one single bend in the road for 100km’s… or is it 100miles? Oops… I forget, nevermind, I am sure someone will let me know =) It’s a bloody long stretch of straight road anyways ;) Stormchaser I no longer hide under the bed =)

During a trip to Yellowstone we made the drive through Beartooth Pass. We got caught in a blizzard at the top of the pass. The snowstorm resulted in a few nice images though. This is one of them. Following this road leads you to a junction where you can head east toward Cody, WY or into the NE entrance of Yellowstone. Beartooth Pass has been featured in the following groups: COUNTRY ROADS / Around the World, Landscape Photography Canon EOS 20D / SIGMA 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM / 3-exposure HDR
In late fall, golden aspens and white shoots surround June Lake, California. Located in the Eastern Sierras along Highway 395, June Lake is one of four main lakes just north of Mammoth. Other lakes along the loop are Gull Lake, Silver Lake and Grant Lake.
Garden Of the Gods, Colorado Springs, Colorado Ya know, one of the things which I have noticed here on DA is the lack of traditional B&W Landscape Photography. Sure, we see the avant guard stuff done in long exposure from the French photographers, plenty of waterscapes, but where has the tradition gone as far as Landscapes is concerned? It makes me kind of sad to think that the art of B&W Landscape Photography done in the traditional sense is being lost….and I can’t help but think, what would Ansel think or Clyde Butcher? (another one of my HUGE influences by the way) When I shot this I had to be pretty careful, sitting on a blind curve isn’t always the best of ideas, but I had to get it and I was determined, I wanted the road in this specifically not just for scale, but for perspective, the way it leads the eye when you look at it, and for sheer compositional sake. I like the way it splits the landscape into 2 parts, separating the top and the bottom, it also makes the viewer notice the immediate surrounds more, like the Yuca’s growing in the bottom part on the left side of the road. I think this one I will print out large for myself, 18×24 or greater, fo some reason it just has the look & feel that I love, and I can’t imagine any smaller displayed on my wall. / I hope you all like it as much as I do! / Let me know your thoughts! / —-John
Highway 395 is my favorite road, as it is a portal to the Eastern Sierra Mountains, White Mountains, and Death Valley.
Featured in Community Red bubble Weekly News!!.. I am thrilled by this humbling mention. thanks RED Bubble this is an image I took.. when on the trail from Fairbanks Alaska .. down the Alcan Highway.. info here / I drove all the way to Florida.. and left Alaska behind… (4,999 miles trip ) There I learned about a more peaceful life.. I learned there was hope in all circumstances. I learned to pause before speaking.. I met my Lord and savior there.. / this is actually in Canada, in the Yukon territory, and these hubcaps.. in the form of Totem poles are part of a collection of the store owners.. so typical of the humor of these guys.. many a people come down this trail, which is over 1000 miles long , down the Canadian rockies.. and I guess, they leave many a hubcap along the way. but the vision you see in the background is Alaska.. we were close to the border.. Ill never forget this trail. / my son and I slept in the car just left of here.. and when we woke up, I took this image.. camera : a disposable one of those kind this is in special dedication to my bubbler friend : Anibal, for she dreams of visiting this place
