All roads lead to the New Forest, or at least this one did.
Not quite as desolate as the title suggests, many wild horses are roaming around close to the road.
Thanks for taking the time to look, your comments are appreciated

They're selling postcards of the hanging
They're painting the passports brown
The beauty parlor is filled with sailors
The circus is in town
Here comes the blind commissioner
They've got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker
The other is in his pants
And the riot squad they're restless
They need somewhere to go
As Lady and I look out tonight
From Desolation Row
A shot of my local dead tree aided with fog in the background. Taken from a spot which in Summer is completely overgrown.
Give me a lone tree and I'll shoot it! Another shot on my saturday drive in Greenland after a snowstorm. I love how the low clouds were behaving that day

Now the moon is almost hidden
The stars are beginning to hide
The fortune-telling lady
Has even taken all her things inside
All except for Cain and Abel
And the hunchback of Notre Dame
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
And the Good Samaritan, he's dressing
He's getting ready for the show
He's going to the carnival tonight
On Desolation Row.
I am working on updating my personal portfolio for various reasons and re-processing some old images. Unfortunately all my old stuff was shot with crappy lenses and I guess I am way spoiled now with the L series stuff... so these aren't as sharp as I'd like them to be.
Anyway this was shot in September, 2006 with Meaghan in Indiana. This was pretty much one of my greatest location finds ever... :) I have a lot of shots from this room, some with her holding the rake (which I found outside), etc., but for some reason I keep coming back to this one. I love the light so much and then there is that slight hint of red on the wall that is kind of creepy and cool.
Looking through my old stuff is making me desperate to do more work for FUN rather than, well, work. Not that I am complaining, I love weddings and some recent commercial work we've done, etc, but I miss the other stuff... and hope to make more time for it.
Death Valley National Park, California.
This is only steps from one of the most popular viewpoints in the park, yet I've never seen photos taken from this perspective. Of course I had to descend a slot canyon and climb down a 12' dry waterfall, then find another way out after dark... but now I know the easy way to get there.
Check out my blog (www.JeffSullivanPhotography.com) for more photos from my recent adventures.
If you consider a packaged photography tour to Death Valley, make sure that it includes Eureka Dunes and The Racetrack, that you can see the leader's own photos so you can judge his or her qualifications, and that those photos do not rely mainly on unusual weather that you might not have during your visit. A good tour leader is there to help you capture nice photos, not show you a few unusual moments that they experienced over many years of visits.
Update January 2016: I replaced the original upload with a higher resolution new edit.
I was inspired by Jeff Vailncourt's photo from Wasteland Weekend - so I made a photo manipulation out of it. See his original image at: www.flickr.com/photos/vailncourt/11942101944/
Thanks again Jeff for letting me cut up your image! :-) Fun project.
A somewhat desolate grain elevator along Hwy 195 greets travelers with its geometric lines and angles as they round a curve in the highway. HDR
Early morning in the Florida Wetlands east of Orlando with the sun peaking through the fog and fire smoke.
The climb up to the peak of Ben More Assynt last year. This would be the second peak of the day, with no views from the top, as the mist rolled in. Nice to have captured another walker and the rocky terrain.
The day of traveling through NE Oregon was full of rain, gorgeous clouds, and wide open spaces with abandoned buildings. This view reminded me of paintings of the midwest with the wide flat stretch of land.
