Excerpts from a Geographer's Photo Archive
I was giving a major talk at a conference. The easiest path from my hotel to the meeting was along the public walkway that took me through the graveyard. It must have been good luck, because the talk went well and I had a great day. (Winchester, England 2015)
I’ve gone back and rephotoed this a number of times. This one is printed and on the wall in my house. A little paint can do wonders. (Old San Juan, Puerto Rico 2010)
I was 16 and it was my first trip to Puerto Rico. The Cementerio Santa María Magdalena de Pazzis just fascinated me. I found the shapes of the mausoleums to be wonderful as they perched over the ocean. Years later I went back to rephoto the space–look for that tomorrow (Old San Juan, Puerto Rico 1976)
There are so many movies and TV shows where the “walk along Thames” is the place where key conversations take place. On this day, we spotted Simon Pegg filming something. This is better than the photo I tried to get of the filming. (London, England 2014)
Regardless of how the Brewers are doing, the Sausage Race is one of the key game highlights. Here is my favorite sausage (Chorizo) with two of my favorite colleagues. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin 2013)
I was taking a photography class my senior year of college. Kathleen and I were out on a cold February day. I spent a lot of time working this print in the darkroom. I got an A on the project–probably because Kathleen makes my photos (and my life great). Happy Birthday Kathleen! (Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 1985)
The other day someone mentioned the old move “Ice Castles.” It made me think of the St. Paul Winter Carnival–one my favorite festivals. (St. Paul, Minnesota, 2002)
Another one of my favorite photos of Kathleen. The flowers are nice as well. (Victoria, British Colombia, 2012)
One of my favorite shots of Kathleen. I caught her on the rooftop of the place we were staying at. (Haridwar, India, 2009)
This has always been one of my favorite travel photos of me. It was coming up on a lovely evening, the mountains were beautiful. (Uttarakhand, India, 2009)
