Month 83 – Forgetting about Cancer

On 11 October 201710 October 2017 By DanIn Prostate Cancer

I’ve really got nothing to report this month other than the fact that I just spent the last 9 days on the road on a wonderful vacation through the eastern Sierra Nevada mountains, Lake Tahoe, and western Nevada.

The purpose of the trip was to get out and do some serious photography, and focusing on that allowed me to forget about PSA tests, cancer, and all the other crap that goes with it for a while. It was refreshing.

I usually publish a full-blown write-up of my trip on my other blog, Travelin’ Dan, but my creative juices must still be on vacation, because I’m struggling to put that post together at the moment. I also need to sort through 768 photos and process the best for the blog.

In the meantime, here’s a sneak peak at some of what you may see later when I finish my trip overview. Enjoy!

Beautiful photos Dan! I flew over that area in May and shot some video. I saw what I thought were frozen lakes, maybe they were dry lake beds. Makes sense now I have seen your photos.

  Thanks, Luigi. I certainly did. All I thought about all week long (my first week back at work) was how I could get back out taking photos in these amazing places.
