You betcha! I got tired of hoping I'd find someone to take the trip with me, so I went there on my own. Funny how I never feel completely alone when I have my cameras with me. It was amazing though. Absolutely amazing!

Nice work. I think I've shot at roughly half of those locations as well. Brings back some good memories.

Dang! Hadn't even thought of that. It's not cheap, I can tell you that. I'm doing a limited edition run on it, so not getting a volume discount or anything. My clients got in on a $54.95 pre press price. If there are any takers out there I'd consider ordering a few more copies than I had planned. It's a 40 page 11x11 hard printed cover coffee table book. Here's the cover (front and back). I doubt the back cover text can be read at this resolution, but you'll get the idea.

Yup! I have had an entirely different book in mind for some time now that I haven't gotten to yet. This one just kinda happened.
