Trinidad

Trinidad

When I realized that a great part of the novel I’m writing needed to occur in transit, on the road, so to speak, I couldn’t think of a better place than on the winding backroads of southern Colorado and northern New Mexico. It’s a drive my family has made dozens of times and that I could almost do with my eyes closed. So, when it came time to plot our route home from Summit County, I begged that we could retrace my characters’ steps for a time. I spent a great deal of this drive with the camera out the window, trying to make visual notes for myself as I plunge back into writing. Most of these pictures turned out horribly, which is okay; they weren’t meant to be great photography but just some notes; after all, picture - thousand words - and who doesn’t get carsick taking notes in the backseat? This one, however, turned out fantastically, and even better once I photoshopped it. I really, really like this one.
