Rules of the Road

Kansas Minimalist

https://menteshexagonadas.com/2024/01/31/m7kao217p Day two of our 1800 mile sojourn across half the country and we spent the majority of our traveling time traversing the state of Kansas.  Kansas does not seem like one of those states that should take most of a day to cross, but we began our day near the northeast corner (Kansas City) and crossed the border into Oklahoma near the southwest corner (Liberal). All in all, we drove just over 600 miles in Kansas.

Road Trip - Wichita Kansas

Cheap Generic Zolpidem Road Trip – Wichita Kansas © 2011 Bo Mackison

click Here is my best view of Wichita. It seems like a nice city, and its the largest city in Kansas. I hoped for a chance to get a photograph of the downtown from the right lane of the interstate. But it seemed appropriate to keep up with the traffic, and I guarantee you, the drivers in the other vehicles were not the least bit impressed that I was manuevering for a clear photo of Wichita.

Road Trip - Hay Roll Row

https://www.larochellevb.com/2024/01/31/96hbskbfn While on the road, and under a fair amount of pressure to “not stop unless the car needs gas”,  Sherpa and I have come up with a fair number of rules regarding my photography habit. This is not as dire as it might sound, for we generally make up the rules while in a subdued fit of hysterical laughing. (There is only so much hysterical laughing one can tolerate while maintaining control of speeding car and trailer, so subdued laughter is appropriate.)

https://www.ipasticcidellacuoca.com/p45cuu7hhb A few of the rules we have instituted are:

  • no slowing down for any photographic experience, traffic flow must be maintained at all times
  • no detours of any sort, not even a half block in and back
  • no turn arounds, none — no photograph is worth a turnaround (says Sherpa) when we are on a schedule with a deadline

I think there may be times for slow photography — my usual MO — and fast photography, which I seem to be experimenting with on the fly.

Road Trip - Tracks in Bloom Kansas

follow Road Trip – Railroad Tracks © 2011 Bo Mackison

follow site One thing I have already discovered that is worth remembering — slow photography is best done as a solo activity or an activity with another person with a definite start and stop time. Fast photography can be done with a spouse or in a crowd. Since there is no stopping in fast photography, no one is ever inconvenienced. A new concept for me, perhaps, but one that all slow photographers should probably learn at some point in their career.

Road Trip - Red Barn

Discount Ambien Online Fast photography does require some abandonment of truths I thought were universal and inviolable. One does not always need to change lenses so that a teensy, far away, red barn can be seen in focus and close up. One can merely give the suggestion of a red barn in the distance and most viewers will accept red blur in distant background as a red barn. Excellent to know when practicing fast photography.

Zolpidem Generic Purchase Does anyone reading this NOT see the red blur, uh, barn in the background? I thought not.

Road Trip - Golden Cottonwoods

  1. I can tell Sherpa made the rules. Something about being behind a steering wheel makes the clock seem so much more important. On the other hand, I’m loving these photos so much–not for their perfection, but for their imperfection!

    • Bo Mackison says

      We both agreed to the rules – they made sense when we had a destination and a deadline. But you’re so right about these photos–I love them because there is a lot of interest in their imperfections.

  2. Joanne Keevers says

    I agree with Quinn, the imperfection of these photos brings about a whole new aspect of your photography skills, Bo. The golden aura of the cottonwoods suggests the photo may have been taken 100 years ago! And yes, I can clearly see the red barn (not just a red blur).

    You know what you’ve done now Bo? The song “Wichita Linesman” will be stuck in my head all day! (Lol) 😀

    • Bo Mackison says

      Thank you, Joanne. They are surely trying my photography skills for they are removing most of the control out of my reach. Sorry you’re singing Wichita Linesman…those earbugs are awful to get rid of.

  3. Just catching up with you after the T-Day feast and travels. Looks like you’ve moved a bit also. Very entertaining photos. Photos on the Fly if you will. I love them.
