About Me

Welcome to the online blog for traveler/writer/photographer Steven Barber. Come in. Relax. Take off your shoes and socks -- or any other article of clothing, this is the internet. Have a look around. I hope to intrigue, amuse, entertain, and maybe provoke you just a little. I love to find adventure. All I need is a change of clothes, my Nikon, an open mind and a strong cup of coffee.

THE DAILY ESCAPE: THE ART OF FRUSTRATION


Some days things just don't go the way they should.

Recovering from a daylong stomach flu in the Monument Valley, including a 2am, 24 mile race through a pitch-black night to Kayenta, the only medical clinic within a hundred miles.

The next day driving 275 miles, four and a half hours to photograph the astounding Bryce Canyon National Park. Being on a tight schedule you have only a day in which to capture this beautiful and unique spot in the world. Your childhood memories don't do it justice, and you've been looking forward to this for more than a year while planning.

And this is the weather upon your arrival. 

The rangers say it's less than 20% that the day will clear.
