Route 66

Route 66, Seligman, Arizona

'If you ever plan to motor west,
Travel my way, take the highway that is best.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six'......Bobby Troup

Yes, the song was written by Bobby Troup. Troup graduated University of Pennsylvania Wharton School of Business and was married to Julie London.... He also played the part of Dr. Joe Early on the 70's TV show, Emergency....Just a bit of trivia...

This image is from 1992 and was captured on film using a Wista 4x5 view camera.  Not sure if I like the black and white or the color.....Maybe the muted vintage color is the one...I do miss the 'D' before the 'EAD CHICKEN' sign.

  2. What type film? Color is a great image almost approaching a HDR look; however, I lean toward the B & W version.
