Art after Devastation

Black And White Photography, Laurie, Photography

Hurrcane Katerina hit the Gulf Coast in August of 2005 and caused over 1800 fatalities, billions in dollars of damage, and is considered to be one of the five deadliest hurricanes to have hit the United States. The Gulf Coast’s natural spaces and places were also impacted, including dozens of Live Oaks, victims of the saltwater storm surge.

Generous chainsaw artists donated time and talent to create sculptures from the remains of dozens of these trees. See my post on Life on the Bike for more photos of these creations and links to learn about the artists.

Slot Canyon Tour

Black And White Photography, David Jensen, Photography

While driving from Zion National Park to Bryce Canyon National Park, I met up with a local photography guide for a trip to a slot canyon. The canyon was about a mile off the main road on a loose sand road that required the right vehicle to access. Having never been to a slot canyon, I appreciated the tips that, Seth, my guide provided. It was an enjoyable experience and would recommend it to anyone in the area.
