At right: The Blessing (nfs) Below: Billowing, threatening clouds converged over these rock formations near Gooding, Idaho, promising heavy rain. I was set up at the bottom of a miles-long, deeply-rutted dirt road that would have flooded into a mud river with the anticipated deluge. Fortunately, the storm veered off. |

![]() Inside Glenn's barn
|
I’ve photographed hundreds of these fascinating buildings over the years. Some are still serviceable, but many more are gone, gone forever, existing only in this collection of artistic photographic renderings. By 2006, Idaho had lost more than half of its old barns, and I knew with alarm this was likely happening everywhere. I expanded my ancient barn photography odyssey to a nationwide journey of discovery, photographing icons that will soon be lost forever to change. The quest continues. The book is coming soon. |

Working quickly between gusts, I zoomed in to this glowing color band in the sky. The textures in the clouds are reminiscent of the "Pastoral Symphony" scene from Walt Disney's "Fantasia." Below right: Adding joy to an already festive season, this newlywed couple heads off toward the Grand Tetons for a Christmas honeymoon. The image is featured on my collectors' editions page. |
