This portrait I took the first evening we arrived in Death Valley before arriving at the Furnace Creek Motel. There was a warm breeze, it was already 6pm and the road was still hot, too hot to walk comfortable barefoot. I lay down on the road to take a landscape image of the girls walking and unexpectedly as I look so bizarre lying with back lifted on the road to avoid the heat, they took a photo of me. Laughter, warm wind, summer and the folly of youth.
On the Road Again will be on view at the group exhibition at Image Nation Paris in May 2023 at Galerie Joseph Le Palais, Paris.
