Love Glacier. Love Montana and all the people there.
Indeed!
Superb series – you’re great at capturing the essential character of these people. Very impressive.
Thanks! hope to see you on ooaworld for the next adventure
Great stuff – killer portraits!
I have been reading and old book called Blue Highways by William Least Heatmoon. It has been delightful to compare your interviews and pictures with his descriptions of the people he met along the way. Similarities and differences are easy to spot.
Thanks for the reference, been happy to contribute to the ‘American Road Trip’ story.
People with big noses always look friendly, don’t you think so? How do you persuade people to go for the camera. You never told us. Or did I miss something? Greetz, Kris.
Hadn’t thought of the nose thing but funny observation. Re the interviews, that’s a good idea idea for a future post, if you don’t mind – introduction is key, it can help having a ‘wingman’ (ie during the second trip instead of ‘lone wolf’ the first time around), and it took practice to get better at it!
