#bvsroute66

The thing about Route 66 I began to learn was don't have expectations. I expected the nostalgia and country roads. I didn't expect the colours of the painted desert. Capture on @sandiskeurope #speeduptheflow #bvsroute66 (at Painted Desert)

Some epic light above Albuquerque! Shot on a @sandiskeurope CF card. But, have been testing the new SanDisk SSD for editing the vlog, and let me just say that they are FAST! #speeduptheflow #bvsroute66 (at Sandia Peak Tramway)

I grew up in the space where the prairies started to crinkle into the mountains. Forever, though, I stood with my eyes firmly pressed to the epic peaks in the distant. It's easy to be draw to the obvious beauty of the Rockies, Andes, and Alps. But the older I get, and the more my photography evolves, the more I'm drawn to the subtle grace of the flatlands. Driving #Route66, I was looking for a barn to photograph. We came across the beautiful homestead. So, we pulled over to photograph it. But, as soon as I stepped out of the car I saw this perfect lone tree standing off in the horizon under and angry afternoon sky. That was the photo. #marriottamericas #bvsroute66 (at Route 66)

Route 66 took @landlopers and I across Illinois and into Missouri - a new state for me. We got spoiled a bit at the @ritzcarlton and then I heading into downtown to search out some iconic views of "The Arch". I came across this scene, which was perfect. The #marriottamericas journey down Route66 has been amazing so far. And I can't wait to share more of the journey with you. #bvsroute66 (at Arch of St. Louis)
