six days in the palm desert
5 January 2016
my first trip using my first ever passport. my return to California after 5 years. those pre-flight anxieties and the sick dread of being a stranger in a strange place. what did i forget? what do i really need?
three cameras. fuji x100. fuji x-t1. gopro hero 4. a row of batteries like dominoes stacked. 100 gigabytes in memory cards and zero expectations. paper tiger fears everywhere.
i don’t travel much. haven’t travelled well. get too rooted where i stand for wayfaring. everything is a test and you have to keep yourself from becoming stone.
a short flight. punctuated with the comforting release of my shutter.
landing. disembarking. heavy rains and strong cigarettes. an open air airport. the world is part light, part darkness and there rising above everything are palm trees.
nothing says you aren’t in the prairie like palm trees.
so, this is Palm Springs.
