Zephyr
Of all our American romantic ideals the West still holds a powerful allure… unspoiled possibility just there for the taking. And the take is still on. I grew up a few miles from the Pacific Ocean. I couldn’t go any more west than I already was. From my vantage the land has already been parceled, fenced, and posted. So where do we go when we already live at the tip of the continent’s last unshaved lip hair? It’s time to turn this train around, and go back inwards to the mountain west, the west of the Rockies and the Basin-Range and the fractious snow-creamed Sierra.
This book sequences images made through the windows of Amtrak’s California Zephyr as it traveled from Emeryville CA to Denver CO in December, 2024. Looking for that golden expanse… looking for that gold… looking and dreaming and looking.
24 glossy pages.
A5 size.
