As both a photographer as well as a motorsport enthusiast, the Bonneville Salt Flats, home of the Bonneville Salt Flats International Speedway, have long been a place I wished to visit. That wish finally came true along the epic 7,000 mile road trip I took with my friend from Miami, Florida to Seattle, Washington. I liked the combination of blue sky, white clouds, and the glistening white salt surface all around me. I love the patterns of the salt lines which remind me of cracked earth, and I wanted to showcase a perspective of these patterns for miles, with beautiful mountains lining the perfectly flat horizon. I set up my tripod and aimed the camera down. I used Tilt to ensure as much of the scene as possible would be in focus. I took in the beauty of this place. Then I made my shot. Enjoy: The Bonneville Salt Flats. Like no place on Earth.
This is around the corner from the pirate house, I think. Pentax 17, Kodak 5222 (Double-XX), Rodinal 1:50.

Abandoned sometime ago but mostly untouched and frozen in time. This Textile factory that went out of business. Very photogenic and amazing to see.

I captured a quick panorama of Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, and the resulting size is over 20,000 pixels.

I wish there were some decent young photographers in Sydney. I only know of a couple, but heck we can never shoot!
Flat Rock Cellars on the Niagara Escarpment (Jordan,Ontario) won Gold in the Ontario Wine Awards for their 2015 Gravity Pinot
Noir and also won the prestigious Governor General Award for the the same wine , as the best in all of Canada! Even the famous American wine critic ( Robert Parker's Wine Advocate) rated this wine with the high score of 92!
After some tastings, I walked out on Sunday afternoon buying
1 1/3 cases of this award winning wine! When you find a great wine that you love ,it is worth the investment that you can enjoy over the next 15 years!
Heading back home from Utah on I-70 in Colorado I needed a place to camp, so I headed for the White River National Forest. I ended up at the Bogan Flats Campground. To say the least, it was a big change of pace from the red rock desert of Utah.

Badly damaged railroad wheel set apparently changed out and left trackside for eventual pickup.
Notice the worn flat spots at the top of the wheel.
Another great literary moment that we have learnt off by heart in honour of the creator of Winnie the Pooh!
Halfway down the stairs
is a stair
where we sit.
there isn't any
other stair
quite like
it.
We're not at the bottom,
We're not at the top;
so this is the stair
where
We always
stop.
Halfway up the stairs
Isn't up
And it isn't down.
It isn't in the nursery,
It isn't in town.
And all sorts of funny thoughts
Run round our heads.
It isn't really
Anywhere!
It's somewhere else
Instead!

Some of my photos made into refrigerator magnets.
Thank you for taking the time to view my photo, and for the faves and comments you make, thank you.
I went for a walk with my friend Dwayne yesterday along the Panama Flats in Victoria. I took some photos as it was such a beautiful evening.
Looking approximately SE towards Walker Flat on the river Murray. The channel on the right of the screen is the actual river. The body of water on the left is a backwater. Possibly once was the main river course many moons ago.
