A Photo Walk With Two of My Boys

Kurtahs Mikhael and Parker Viers joined Kooky's Road Trip today for a photowalk around Globe, Miami, and Superior in Arizona.

At 102 degrees, it was perfect...ly hot and we were glad to have brought a cooler full of water.

Parker's not into photography, so he politely hung out with us. Kurtis was shooting a Nikon FG-20, Nikon Nikkormat, and Ikoflex TLR. I was using my Canon 7D, Canon EOS3, Pentax P30T, Nikon FE, and Yashica 635 TLR.

It was a perfect day.

I'm just a guy who finds the world an interesting place and likes to capture certain moments with a camera. They aren't for sale, or anything. I just like them. Well, usually. I've taken a lot of photos I don't like, as well.

Reconnecting With Something From My Past

The first time I heard Navajo spoken as a natural course of conversation was in Holbrook, Arizona. I was in an art gallery that sold various Indian art. The owner, Nakai, spoke to one of the locals, who dropped by, in his native tongue. He sold me a ring in English.

Getting Lost...or Found

It doesn’t take much to get me off the Interstate. I’ll take U.S. or State Highways any day. County roads are even better.

And They Say You Can’t Go Back

They say “you can’t go back.” Well, I just did it. I threw a few clothes in a bag, packed some cameras and film, put on my boots, my hat, and headed south toward Lamar, Missouri in my ‘96 Ford F-150 with Biggie in the back seat.
