Taken While Driving.

A few weekends ago, I learned how to take pictures while driving.
Here are a few of the more successful photos.

A pink barn! And probably a concerned member of traffic...

(North Adams, MA)

Such beauty! Behold, the Searsburg Wind Farm!
(Searsburg, VT)

Not sure what the photo was supposed to be of, but the road was definitely moving briskly by.

DON'T WORRY - ITS PROFESSIONAL.

Pleasantly tall looking chapel.

All Utopias Fell: Some favorite process shots.

Below are some photos from the weekend of 10/15-18/10. They were taken during one of the final work sessions on Michael Oatman's project, All Utopias Fell.
This project is now on view at Mass MoCA.

(looks like a warrior clenching his cape epically)

(light graffiti!)

(another golden epic parachute shot)

(a bit of Lewitt process found its way into the procedures)

(saw a rainbow in the morning on the hill behind the museum
from underneath a solar panel installed by BPVS)

SMFA Proof of Purchase Show

but credit is due to ADJ for his use of paths in his professional photography.)
