My July 13, 2103 contribution to the Daily Photo Game.  Check out the whole body of work at http://DailyPhotoGame.com

I  watched an interview the other day and it talked about process and how some people, good smart people get too wrapped up in their process.

So this time, I decided to alter my process.  I looked at Bob’s shot of El Pico, The Beak and with that in mind I went out to explore and discover.  Originally, I planned on going to a yard I am familiar, that is overgrown with cacti and many other exotic plants.  I never got there, it became far to interesting along the way.

The process described in that interview went something like this.  You have this idea in your head and then move to accomplish the idea with an open mind and what come out the other side is amazing.

I found what represents “the” Alien Egg to me or where it might have come from. (think the movie Alien)

My contribution for July 3, 2103 to the Daily Photo Game.

Looking at Bob’s window without a view, I began my process, making a list of words that I perceived from the shot.  Texture, wall, window, 100, monochromatic and several more.

While writing, I was reminded of an adventure out to the Salton Sea that included decaying trailers and the many dried fish on the shoreline.

Picked this shot, since he was looking for his last breath, and no where to go, truly a dead end.

Following Bob Stevens’ shot yesterday of the moving water, sand. foam with the different shades of blue and green made me think -painterly, foam, suds, wave, motion, mystery, unknown, colors of blue and green, water.

Using my descriptive words of Bob’s image, I stretched myself and made todays response.

I have attended others vintage trailer shows, including early Saturday mornings (before the public is invited), never having a problem, but many folks were just rolling out of their trailers and not ready for the general public. (lot’s of funny retro pajamas)

Staying overnight during the event was very different.  First, you meet the others in a different context on Friday into the evening and night.  A big bonus was being there late at night.  Having never stayed that long, the place does not go down for the night early.  Everyone seemed to be moving about, socializing around the park, bonding, trailerite to trailerite.  With my buddy Eliot Crowley, an Airstream owner, we joined in with the Central Coast Airstream group for some socializing.   In good fun, I was labeled an “SOB” since I have a Shasta in the restoration process.  SOB standing for, “some other brand”.

Walking around at night without the crowds, camera and tripod was great fun. Along with a beautiful night, moderate temps we were surrounded by thunderstorms and open skies above.

Below are a few examples.
