Postcards from Nowhere: MS,AR,MO,TN,KS,CO
.jpg)
Above: Jennifer sold her 1986 Honda TRX-70 to Allie and then made sure she was all checked-out to drive it.
Jennifer and I were together in Madison, MS for a few weeks in June and July of this year. Then, she flew back to CO, and I drove the bike home through the Mississippi Delta, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, and finally back to Colorado.
These photos were all captured over a two month period from July - Aug of 2013. These photos were captured in TN, MS, AR, MO, KS, and Colorado. The photos were all shot on a Canon EOS 50D with one of the following lenses:
- EF-S 17-85mm f/4.5-5.6 IS USM image-stabilized, ultra-sonic telescopic zoom
- EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM image-stabilized, ultra-sonic telescopic zoom
The soundtrack for the slideshow is Don't Go by Fascinoma. I chose this song because I heard it on the show American Dad (Season 4 Episode 4) and I fell in love with it. The lyrics just make the song that much better. Also, of course, it reminds me of Buttercup and how she stole my running shoes, but refuses to admit it.
The images are compiled into a 9 Meg (5:00) Adobe Flash slideshow (2013_Dont_Go.swf) that you should be able to open and view with any browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.). To view the slideshow, just click on the photo above. If you want to view the slideshow as a Windows executable, you can play this version (2013_Dont_Go.exe), and it allows you to play, pause, skip forward, backwards, etc.
Image post-processing was done in Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended. The slideshow was created using Imagematics Stillmotion Pro.

Don't Go
Lyrics to I'm Walking This Road Because You Stole My Car (Do :
I'm walking this road
because you stole my car
i'm singing this song
cause you have all my cds
you want me to believe
in your love
and yet i will when you give back my stuff
give back my stuff
the gerbils are dead
your books have found a new home
under the tree
where i have buried your clothes
and you want me to believe
and yet i will
when you dig up your stuff
dig up your stuff
how am i suppose to love
my love is in this dark town
how am i suppose to love
my love is lighter then
if you go
if you go
if you go
don't go
don't go
don't go
don't go
don't go
im walking this road
because you stole my heart
im singing this song
cause you stole my cd's
you want me to belive
and yeah i do cause i cant love you enough
cant love you enough
give back my stuff
you have my love
Don't go
