down this road
there is an airstream
2 surfboards
and a lady in red
she was sweeping...
"too much sand!" she cried.
i asked to take her photograph
because she just looked so perfect
against the surreal desert
baja landscape.
i wish i knew her name.
tell me her story....

what is that hut? an oasis?
can passers-by stop and have a siesta
in one of the hammocks?
she is wonderful!
i want to call her loretta.
and behind her is her boyfriend, bob!

woah i wish she lived in the middle of that sandy place sweeping all day, getting nowhere
but it has wheels
must have been nice to stumble upon them
Wow! So Beautiful...Wish I was there! :)
Your photographs are wonderful, they look like they could be in a travel magazine (or a fashion magazine!)
inspired to hit the road.
she left everything behind
to hang out with him
for the rest of her life
everything except for one red dress
he promised her she would never have to
wear shoes ever again
all i know is, that lovely lady & i have the same bird dress!! (which i wore today, har.) and i so love your photos.
I think she is a real-life cousin to the woman played by Catherine Keener in the movie Into the Wild. The movie isn't brilliant, but the cinematography often is, and Catherine Keener always is. I think if you watch this movie, you may find her. Again. Good luck finding her again, good luck finding more entrancing images.
She travels light, lives light, and seems really happy. I should be so lucky.
You can tell they surf a lot, look at the surf knots on their feet. She has bumps on the top of her feet from knee paddling, and he has a big bump on the instep of his left foot (most likely a goofy footer). I could be wrong, but that's what caught my eye...
She is indeed perfect against that landscape. What a perfect moment you caught. She reminds me of a pin-up girl from the 50's in a surfer lifestyle setting.
Qué imágenes tan bellas!!
congratulations!
it's really a first shot of a great story, maybe a weird story, but interesting, beautiful,..
I keep looking at you, very inspiring, I do a guide for zara.com, check it!
SPY CITY, we have some funny coincidences
Best!

Ah, this is a land I could live in. And I've always lusted just a bit after an airstream. The Organpipe National Park is an old and dear friend of mine. Whoever she is, I hope she is enjoying her life to the fullest extent.
What a story. I want to see the movie!!
love.
i love nikkole!'s story and it's the one i want to believe. :)
just wanted to say i love your blog and these photos are great, they totally remind me of kill bill.
Too much sand! I love it
They met in a small beach in Hawaii and decided they wanted desert instead.
