Levon Helm Sing's Hank Williams

I'm living with days that forever are gone and a heart that does nothing but pine

To love and to want you, I know is wrong when you’ll never again be mine

I tell my heart to live and forget someday a new love it will find

But each day it lives is filled with regret cause you’ll never again be mine

My lonely heart holds no hatred or blame though sometimes I feel It may die

But it always beats stronger when I hear your name and it won’t let me say goodbye

Lyrics by Hank Williams

CHANNELING ROTHKO

David Jordan Williams (behance) - "The coastline, as I was photographing it over time resembled, to me, a series of Rothko Canvases. As the days progressed I began to notice the ways in which the formal lines of the water and clouds began to shift and change position and tone the more I felt I was working color on canvas. These images were taken in Carmel, California in May 2013."

US rivers in the contiguous 48 states, assembled in vector ink from public USGS data by Nelson Minar. It’s like elegant porcelain, made of digital water.

I’m amazed both that so much of the continent is covered by rivers, as well by the fact that there’s enormous regions with nothing. Fascinating. Click the link above to explore more.

Mike Brodie (tumblr | facebook) first began photographing in 2004 when he was given a Polaroid camera. Working under the moniker, The Polaroid Kidd, Brodie spent the next four years circumambulating the U.S. amassing an archive of photographs that would go on to make up one of the few, true collections of American travel photography. Having never undergone any formal training, he chose to remained untethered to the pressures and expectations of the art market.
