A while ago I posted a picture on a forum that I took on one of my day trips.

I mentioned that it was about a 3 hour drive from where I live that I took this image.  This was taken with my Canon SD800.  I have some images from the Nikon D70, but they were not really as good as I was hoping.  The comments I got on the picture were interesting.  Some were saying things along the lines of “I wonder what is 3-4 hours drive from where I live”, to “There are no good pics to be taken where I live unless ya like places where nothing can live lol”.

For that, I had two replies, one was an old lesson I had to learn the hard way.  I was discussing ideas with my photography professor in college saying how I felt like I needed to travel far to get the images I wanted.  He told me that you don’t need to venture far away to be able to tell a story or get a good photo. I replied that the town was too small and without a car I couldn’t get the pics I wanted. He told me to look harder and I would get them.

The second reply was a few images from my trip to Vegas (my friend who doubted that there were any good pics to take lives near Vegas).
