Road Trip Part 4: The Salton Sea and Grand Canyon

October 29, 2018 by Steve Taylor1 Comment

In my early days of back-to-back cross-country road trips, my knowledge of photography was lacking, and my equipment was limited to a subpar cell phone camera.

Road Trip Part 3: San Diego and Encinitas

October 26, 2018 by Steve Taylor3 Comments

International travelers are more than happy to tell you all about the people, places, and cultures of the world.

Road Trip Part 2: Tucson to Alpine

October 23, 2018 by Steve TaylorLeave a Comment

When I decided to take my first cross-country road trip, in April of 2012, the destination was originally set as Tucson, AZ. A close friend had moved there a few years prior, and he really seemed to love it. Having spent most of my life in Northern Indiana, I was fed up with cold weather and dreamed of visiting a climate that was completely different. My trip was as much about scouting for a possible move as it was a new adventure. When I arrived … [Read more...]

Road Trip Part 1: Branson to Bisbee

October 7, 2018 by Steve TaylorLeave a Comment

On April 1st, 2012 I set out on my first road trip from Northern Indiana to Southern California. By November 2014 I had added four more similar trips, each time taking a different route. It's easy to say that the journey is better than the destination, but the reality is, the longer the road trip, the greater the monotony. Fortunately, there is relief that comes from finding great places to stop, stretch your legs, take some pictures, get … [Read more...]
