The Sights of 2018

2018 was something of a mixed bag as far as photography went.  I had big plans and lots of ideas, but due to a number of issues, most often unfavorable weather conditions when I got on site, I never produced anything that would lend itself towards a full photo set.  My biggest photo shoot of the year, up in Centralia, Pennsylvania, lent itself more to discussion as a Journal entry than a presentation as a Photography set.  Other photo shoots, such as my visit to Morgantown, produced a large amount of photos, but nothing that I could style into a coherent photo set.

However, I really did my best in 2018 when it came to smaller photo shoots.  I got a little bit of a lot of things, and that is what this photo set is about: a compilation of all of the things that I saw and photographed over the course of the year.

An American flag, placed in a crack in the pavement of the Graffiti Highway in Centralia, Pennsylvania. Discarded spray paint can on the Graffiti Highway in Centralia, Pennsylvania, likely used for tagging the road.
