he used to tell me
he got claustrophobic
when there were too
many trees around.
walt cotten
was a true boy
of the desert.
walt always liked
being on top of the world,
places of long vistas
and
wide open spaces

i love this...
i bizarrely feel the same. having traded in the deserted cacti for redwoods, i find myself sometimes craving that barren, empty space. well, i guess it's not that bizarre. i hella love norcal, but there ain't nothin like the Desert.
"oh give me land lots of land from the starry skies above/don't fence me in"
the anthem of cowboys and desert rats everywhere!
I love your blog. I love Muley Point, one of my favorite spots.
desert rat at heart...xxoo

Thank you for making this. I miss him every day and try to carry on his ideas in my own photography teaching.
I know we all hope he is happy, maybe off in his own desert somewhere..
This was nice. Walt was a great teacher and inspiration.
Wonderful pics. Make me smile...
