The Photolalia

A part of California that’s iconic for me, but that probably doesn’t look much like the California of most people’s imagination…

This isn’t technically a very good photo, unfortunately; but given the extreme conditions, I’m kind of surprised I got anything at all…

When I show Californians this Lost Coast photo, they think it’s somewhere on the Big Sur coast, if they think it’s in California at all…

My grandfather flew with the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) in the First World War and bequeathed me his photo album from that time…

One of my fave Black Butte photos, a throwaway image that people sometimes think is a cartoon or drawing, something not quite real…

Trains often strike me as the natural non-natural inhabitants of the desert, if you get what I mean…

The first time I drove through Bakersfield I started seeing the pumpjacks. They were everywhere…

It’s hard to argue with curves and structure as a photographic subject, and I don’t…

Just another Photoshop mashup… with suggestions of things that aren’t there, and of a place I once called home….
