Our waiter who was excellent in Flagstaff
Oak Creek Canyon provided some natural beauty in Sedona.
August 20th Rees met me at the station, a quick shower, a big breakfast and off to Oak Creek Canyon to photograph some of the local natural beauty. Did you really think there would be no models on this trip? The muse was alive and well in Arizona, not just Athena but Flagstaff was a lot like Brattleboro. A small creative town old buildings, values but mostly friendly people. My camera was busy from dawn till dusk.
“Patriotism is supporting your country all the time and your government when it deserves it!” Mark Twain, thanks Webster for directing me to Barack Obama June 30th speech.
Now we’re talkin’ – my neck of the woods. Awesome, as always!
Thank you I enjoyed your neck of the woods lots. I’ll be back.
enjoy pjc
Wonderful picture, she is like a soft flower! Love the Mark Twain Quote too:) I have a split relationship with patriotism, living in a country which is not “mine”, feeling very European, but also Citizen of the World or so….Sometimes I envy the people who can be patriotic all the time, loudly, strongly, without doubts…but on the other hand, I prefer my unpatriotic status:)
ps: forgot to say: the waiter is kind of cute, too:)
I’m with Andrea. That waiter can “wait on me” any old time. And the model in Oak Creek Canyon is quite a dish too. All kidding aside, both are lovely photographs, displaying a sensitivity to the subjects.
And thanks for the link to another Twain quote. This idea of never questioning the government is, in my mind, decidedly un-American. Not to mention just plain stupid.
