Driving on the road to nowhere for the Macro Monday theme "Vibrant Minimalism"

Sometimes barriers in life are those that we put in front of us. Maybe we need to take that 1st step and cross that threshold whether it’s a mental barrier or a simple puddle of water and take that journey beyond the horizon in front of us. Who knows what we could discover?

 

Taken along a very rural road in the middle of frankly nowhere. There was this narrow grove of trees that stretched out to the horizon surrounded by naked fields on all sides.

 

This speaks for itself.

 

My daughter liked this photo best of that evening's shoot.

 

Bring back the sunshine! I think it is on strike. It rained a little a few minutes after this photos was taken and much rain and dull weather since.

Road to nowhere

This is a light inside a parking garage. I put my camera on a tripod then I put it on a timer and set it inside the florescent light to get the one picture. The other pictures was taken on a snowy day on Sea to Sky Highway in BC Canada.

TOXIC

www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOZuxwVk7TU&feature=fvsr

 

Baby, can't you see, I'm calling

A guy like you should wear a warnin'

It's dangerous, I'm fallin'.

There's no escape, I can't wait...

I need a hit, baby give me it!

You're DANGEROUS, I'm LOVIN' it.

 

Too high, can't come down

Losing my head,

Spinning 'round and 'round

Do you feel me now?

 

With a taste of your lips, I'm on a ride.

You're toxic, I'm slippin' under!

Taste of a poison paradise...

I'm addicted to you.

Don't you know that you're toxic?

And I love what you do.

Don't you know that you're toxic?

 

It's getting late to give you up.

I took a sip from my devil's cup...

Slowly, It's taking over me.

This is part of the Foreshore Freeway Bridge designed to bring traffic from the N2 into the Waterfront area of Cape Town. It was started in the early 1970s, but never finished. There is a similar hanging ramp where the bridge was supposed to join the N2.

 

The structure has become a tourist attraction and a location for film and fashion shoots. A similar feature in Birkenhead when the Conway Street flyover was partially demolished never received such glamorous attention!

I know I shouldn't take pic in this period but...

I cannot resist :°

Hiroshima, Japan

 

Our last morning in Hiroshima and I couldn't leave without a ride on one of the old trams. Don't know where it was going but just jumped on the first old looking one that came our way. Soon after I took this shot, she got off leaving Mrs R and myself as the only passengers on the road to nowhere or at least it's terminus.

West of Iqaluit, the road to the municipal dump cuts through a stark, snowbound landscape, where utility poles march across the tundra like sentinels of survival. Ice-crusted wires stretch into the pastel horizon, tracing the contours of human infrastructure against the silence of the land.

 

A lone structure anchors the distance, dwarfed by the vastness and light. In this image, the geometry of power lines meets the softness of Arctic dusk — a portrait of isolation, endurance, and the quiet choreography of northern life.

Somewhere on the Scottish mainland on the North West close above the Isle of Mull, Scotland. Love the black and white edit on this shot and the remoteness of it all that sums up this part of Scotland for me.

 

A couple of years ago I travelled around the entire coastline of Great Britain and took lots of photos. Please check my blog for some more:

A seemingly endless road stretches through Namibia’s golden desert, leading travelers into the vast, untouched wilderness. The perfect embodiment of solitude, adventure, and the boundless freedom of the open road.

Nur ein Weg führt zum Ziel

 

Talking Heads - Road To Nowhere Lyrics:

 

Well, we know where we're goin'

But we don't know where we've been

And we know what we're knowin'

But we can't say what we've seen

 

And we're not little children

And we know what we want

And the future is certain

Give us time to work it out

 

We're on a road to nowhere

Come on inside

Takin' that ride to nowhere

We'll take that ride

 

I'm feelin' okay this mornin'

And you know

We're on a road to paradise

Here we go, here we go

 

We're on a ride to nowhere

Come on inside

Takin' that ride to nowhere

We'll take that ride

 

Maybe you wonder where you are

I don't care

Here is where time is on our side

Take you there, take you there

 

We're on a road to nowhere

We're on a road to nowhere

We're on a road to nowhere

 

There's a city in my mind

Come along and take that ride

And it's all right, baby it's all right

 

And it's very far away

But it's growing day by day

And it's all right, baby it's all right

 

Would you like to come along?

And you could help me sing this song

And it's all right, baby it's all right

 

They can tell you what to do

But they'll make a fool of you

And it's all right, baby it's all right

 

There's a city in my mind

Come along and take that ride

And it's all right, baby it's all right

 

And it's very far away

But it's growing day by day

And it's all right, baby it's all right

 

Would you like to come along?

You could help me sing this song

And it's all right, baby it's all right

 

They can tell you what to do

But they'll make a fool of you

And it's all right, baby it's all right

 

We're on a road to nowhere

We're on a road to nowhere

We're on a road to nowhere

We're on a road to nowhere

Talking Heads - Road To Nowhere Lyrics

These are the salt flats leading to the Great Salt Lake (20 min. outside of Salt Lake City, UT). Miles of salt paths glistening on the sun, going nowhere.

I especially like the pinkish haze that cloaks the horizon...

If you are lucky, the weather is consistent, and the lake maintains the same level - you can stick a branch in the shallow salt water and sand; leave it for a few weeks. When you come to retreive it it will look like it is made out of crystals, sparkling and salty...

Westhampton Rd., Northampton, MA, 2001/2002.

 

Once I knew only darkness and stillness... my life was without past or future... but a little word from the fingers of another fell into my hand that clutched at emptiness, and my heart leaped to the rapture of living.

 

--Helen Keller

 

It's a great excuse and luxury, having a job and blaming it for your inability to do your own art. When you don't have to work, you are left with the horror of facing your own lack of imagination and your own emptiness. A devastating possibility when finally time is your own.

 

--Julian Schnabel
