Book store, Manila, Philippines
I few months back while spending some time in a Manila book store I ran across this book with one of my images on the front jacket cover, sold through Getty Images. Just a rather odd moment on the other side of the world. “Become A Better You” it says in uppercase letters, I’ll get right on that.
On assignment for another book
A few weeks out in Kansas and the Dakota’s for a book project on the Parklands of the Midwest. Managed to hike, canoe, horseback ride, fly fish, swim, rock climb and shoot the Sands Hills of Nebraska at twilight from a Cessna 150, a truly beautiful experience.
Cattle ranch in South Dakota
Still traveling shooting the book project. We have a couple more states to wrap up including North Dakota, Minnesota and then back to Iowa to finish things up at the famous Iowa State Fair, 27 foods on a stick!
Diner in Greektown, Detroit, MI
Well it’s July and we are on the road again this summer. We’re shooting a follow up to the book from last year The Best of the Midwest Rediscovering Americas Heartland. This year it’s the same twelve Midwest states but the focus is more on the amazing food. So lots of visits to farmers, restaurants, diners, and other interesting Midwest food stops.
Best of the Midwest
Finally, all those weeks last year of shooting made it to the bookstores The Best of the Midwest Rediscovering America’s Heartland book is available. I spent eight weeks last summer traveling the Midwest with writer Dan Kaercher and a PBS film crew. We tried to cover both well known and unknown locations around the Midwest from National Parks to amazing food locations and everything in between. Take a look for it at your local bookstore or on Amazon.com.
