I had forgot I had this. Purchased at the International Banana Museum at the Salton Sea. This enticing banana is the entire back so it really stands out. A smaller one on the front. Funny how it would likely be banned on Facebook and Instagram.

Southwest
Southwest has been flying in and out of Palm Springs now. Actually quite a few flights and they sure are colorful. Photographed during a meet up with some of my photographer friends.
Typewriters
How many of you remember using a typewriter. Not as old as this one but I sure did. Like film cameras and vinyl records, I understand that typewriters are also making a comeback. I photographed this one on film to be appropriate. Found in Pioneertown California.
Ashley
I do love photographing beautiful women. I have photographed my buddy Ashley a few times. Waiting and watching something going on here.
What Does It Say?
Just something you would drive by and ignore. Trash, graffiti on an abandoned billboard, and in the distance a high rise casino resort. As a scene what does it say? From a photo excursion.
Billboards
Somehow when you see the billboards in their entirety and location, it negates the message. On the frontage road along the 10 Freeway near Cabazon on the way to Palm Springs.
Economical
When shooting film, I have learned that it is more economical to photograph with two models at the same time. I will have to remember to do that more often.
Trains
I do also like photographing trains. I will have to do that more often. This was in Tucson on a multi-day photo excursion. Fujifilm X-Series camera using the Velvia film emulation.
With Her Shadow
Model Aristodeme in a coat with her shadow. Nothing else. Hasselblad digital camera system and Broncolor lighting.
Manzanar Fire Department
January 6th has become a historic date for many wrong reasons. This year January 6th 2021 I was at home. January 6th 2017 I was at the World War II Manzanar Internment Camp on a multi-day Death Valley photo excursion. Photographed with a Hasselblad digital camera system.
