Without a doubt, some of the most interesting places are those that are on the roads less traveled. These photographs attempt to tell the story of those places but can never replace those actual pieces of history experienced in person.

I would have ideally liked to do a square book for this project but, most of my pictures are rectangular instead of square so I think the Large Landscape book will work better. I would like to work with premium paper on this book as well and make it a hard back book. It will definitely have text so I can tell the story of these pictures, the font will probably look like a font of a handwriting style. I am still debating whether I want to do a purely black and white book, only color, or both. The print standards look like they may only do one or the other. I want the book to look nostalgic but some of the colored pictures are really beautiful as well. I would appreciate any feedback ..thanks.

Hwy 90 Holt to Milton

Another building that immediately attracted my attention upon entering the city of Milton was the Imogene Theatre.  Not only was I attracted to the building, being obviously historical, but to the nature of the burn marks that engulfed the back side of the building.  I came to find out that in January of 2009, the theatre/local history museum was devastated by a fire.  They were able to save  many of the artifacts and pictures which existed from the early 1800's when brickmakers industrialized this part of Santa Rosa County.  These bricks went to build sites such as Ft. Pickens and Barrancas.  The museum is set to reopen sometime in 2011.
