A friend and I road tripped through central South Dakota a few summers ago and got to chase this rainbow for about an hour down Highway 14. I pulled over to take this picture of the bow over a ripened wheat field with drops of rainwater still glistening on the points of the barbed wire fence.
I love elements of American typography. It’s like it’s caught in a time warp. Especially out here in the wild west.
This landscape rose up before us on our way toward Lusk, Wyoming. The full moon was spectacular and when we came over a hill on the highway I saw this bluff and begged my husband to pull over so I could take a few pictures. Because it was nearly dark – of course – I needed to use my tripod and where we stopped was not exactly out of the way of traffic. My first attempt at taking the picture was foiled by the flashing hazard lights on our suburban. I thought my husband would lose it when I asked if he could please turn the lights of the truck off completely for a few seconds but he patiently complied and this was the resulting image. /

Acrylic on canvas Se my journal entry for the inspiration for this piece. It is kind of crazy, but interesting if you can dig that kind of thing…. Also available from Zazzle.com as a mug and tote bag.
taken off the back of our train somewhere through the plains of USA… Leaving It All Behind I’m leaving on the next train to freedom / Your heart has kept me captive for too long / You think that I won’t leave until you tell me / so before I go I’m writing you this song. We spent years building up this friendship / but you know I built it mostly by myself / You didn’t care enough to help but I loved you / Now it’s time to put it on the shelf. I want to leave you far behind me / to get you out of heart and mind / I may be the best you’ll ever have / but you won’t be the best I’ll ever find. You made sure to give less than expected / so I would have nothing I might repay / You told me that I owe you nothing / but then you stand there begging me to stay. I’m leaving on the next train to freedom / Your heart has kept me captive for too long. / You think I can’t leave until you let me / As in so, so many ways, my love,... you are wrong. by Rachel Leigh
I drive by this windmill almost every day, twice a day, on my 40 mile commute to work in southwest Iowa. I kept waiting for the background and the lighting to be just right. I think today was it. This had some post processing in Photoshop. A little tweak to the color and contrast, but this is pretty much what I saw today with the setting sun hitting the blades of the windmill and bare cornfield. / Canon EOS 10D / EF-S 18-55 / 1/80 at f16 / ISO 200
‘Garden of the Gods’ is a wondrous ‘garden’ just out of downtown Colorado Springs. Known as ‘high desert’ Colorado Springs is nestled at the foot of Pike’s Peak, one of the many 14,000 foot mountains in Colorado. What’s bizarre is the fact this landscape spends most of the winter blanketed by snow, yet when the snow melts, much of it is dry and desert like. Colorado Springs is at around 9000 feet, so the air is clear but thin. This particular rock formation is called ‘The Prayer’ for obvious reasons. It’s an amazing place.
I continue my love affair with US typography. Rosie’s Diner in the Colorado snow.
A haystack in a dusty field on an early September day in the early evening. Actually, the stripped bark of a tree.

Even the Midwest can seem exotic at times. It may appear to be a shot of an African safari, but in reality, it’s just a few trees at the edge of our high school parking lot. Thanks for viewing!
A recent photo, but I wanted to make it look as if it had been in an attic trunk waiting for discovery.
Awesome place. Went on a road trip with my brother and his family from Colorado. Beautiful mid west.

A drive through the hilly Nebraska farmlands revealed a signature of Autumn’s arrival as soybean fields change from green to gold. The change is rapid and in a mere few weeks all will be brown and dried and harvests will begin. / /
Taking a walk on a rainy fall day along the Minnesota side of the Red River, I came upon this quiet little creek. Startled by two Mallard ducks that took flight upon my arrival, I was disappointed I did not have my camera at the ready as they flew off into the distance. Wishing they would come back I waited in the rain for their return. Not to be so I captured the image and hoped to return again some day. Processed as a HDR it would make a beautiful card or picture to hang on any wall. Photographer / Robert Berry / Nikon D80 18-135mm Nikkor Lense

Beautiful country road in southern Indiana after ice storm.
This is near my twin brother’s place in Colorado, USA. It’s so wild west I love it!
I went to a friend’s ranch in Colorado this morning just out of Monument, El Paso County. Took a few snaps when I arrived. It was minus something ridiculous so my fingers almost snapped off and the lens fogged but I’m pretty happy with the result.
Just a shop on the side of the road near where my brother lives in Colorado. Classic stuff.
