We have returned home from another trip photographing in Utah. We did come home a couple of days early due to impending winter weather here in Texas. It was near warm out West, while everything from Texas Eastward was in the deep freeze. We did have an excellent trip and we had an amazing time finding new things and making new photographs of some of our favorite places.

Here are a few statistics from this year’s trip:

DAYS ON THE ROAD TOTAL: 29
DAYS IN BRYCE CANYON NP: 3
DAYS IN SPRINGDALE, UT: 16
DAYS IN MOAB, UT: 5
NUMBER OF DAYS PHOTOGRAPHING: 16
SUSAN 4X10 FILM: 87
SUSAN 8X20 FILM: 7
JB 8X10 FILM: 67
JB 11X14 FILM: 12
TOTAL MILES DRIVEN: 3,745

It will take us some time to get the film processed, sorted, filed and proofed. Hopefully we brought back more interesting photographs to print. We invite everyone to follow us on our Web Site, our BLOG and FaceBook. For those of you that traveled with us and followed our ‘FROM THE ROAD’ 2017 emails, thanks for traveling with us! We have gathered all of the emails into a PDF you can view here:

Don’t forget the selfie!  That seems to be the latest fad and though irritating at times, the preverbal ‘selfie’ has its appeal.  We are no different, I guess.  We did make a few obligatory selfies on our last trip.  Saw a few people with those selfie sticks. . . some were pointed out car windows or an open moon roof while driving.  Really wonder what kind of images they got?  Having said all that, and not to be out done, we include a few here for your viewing pleasure. . .

Needless to say, we have quite a bit of film to process and that will take at least another month before we begin to see what we brought back.  In a world of instant gratification (keep that selfie stick out of my face!), there are those that can’t understand how anyone could be that patient.  This is one of the greatest attributes of LF and ULF film photography.  It teaches you patience.  You take your time when finding a subject.  You spend even more time composing the image.  Making that exposure is a one time thing.  You make sure. . . then you make doubly sure, before you expose that one sheet of film.  You know that you will not even get an inkling of what you captured for quite some time, so you give it your best and hope what you do pays off.

We continue to follow our passion for LF and ULF film photography and do send our deepest heart felt thanks to everyone for your continued support.  Each year there seems to be more and more interest in film and is extremely encouraging.  Happy New Year to all.  Hope everyone has a great 2016!

Agin, Thank You Everyone!

JB & Susan
