One nice thing about road trips is that along scenic stretches, a car is a mobile room with a view. But when a long day of driving is on the agenda, it’s hard to stop and admire every lovely landscape. So I put my camera on Sports/Action mode, aim it through the window as we are whizzing by, and hope some of the resulting photos turn out. (Of course, I only do this when I am a passenger, not the driver…). Here are some shots from a recent road trip from Northern to Southern California, and back.

You could be a professional photographer. Every picture is just perfect.

Thanks so much — but that is way too kind! For these types of photos, I just aim and shoot, and am happy if a few of them turn out. Most are way too blurry, or I click the shutter just as a tree or road sign or truck blocks the view, or there is too much glare bouncing off the window (and showing up on the resulting photo). It’s a miracle any turn out at all! But when they do, I’m glad to have done that fleeting moment some justice.
