Lost in Thought

Ride Free sign on the back of a Honda Metropolitan scooter.

In My Head

Finding this sign on the back of a Honda Metropolitan scooter had me wondering if my recent tendencies to be lost in thought were a result of not riding the Vespa enough.  It’s been sitting quietly in the garage sucking electrons from a Battery Tender for over a week now.  The weather has been fine and I certainly could make the time but still it sits.Continue Reading

Scooter in the Sticks: A Photo Exhibition by Steve Williams

Scooter in the Sticks exhibition announcementA Virtual Experience

Many followers of Scooter in the Sticks unable to physically visit the Art Alliance Gallery Downtown have asked that I post a virtual experience of the exhibition. I’ve endeavored to provide a feel of the space along with a close look at the content of the show.  And I’ve also created a ZenFolio website where you can purchase prints from the show along with many others. The prints will be shipped directly to you and printed by the same company I use for prints not made myself.

There’s a video walk through of the show installation at the end of the post.

This post is very long.  A lot of material to get through.  Someone more technically proficient would probably have found a simpler and more efficient way to present the show.

So without further ado, welcome to my exhibition.Continue Reading

It seems there have been more rainy, gray days this summer than sunny ones.  And many of those days seem to involve torrential downpours.  Probably a good thing for me.  Left me with time to work on my photo exhibition.Continue Reading

Riding vs. Photography

The clock is ticking.  Only 35 days until I hang my photography show at the Art Alliance Gallery Downtown.  Time is slipping away and there’s still much to do.  Finished a batch of show announcements today and started to place them around town.  The stack in the photo was at the Pump Station Cafe.  Plan to distribute more tomorrow.

By mid-afternoon I should have the first batch of enlargements in hand.  Fingers crossed that the printing is acceptable.  Everything is coming together in my head.  The physical reality of putting together a photography show is not far behind.Continue Reading
