A 20 mile 4x4 trail connects the desert town of Pioneertown to the mountain resort town of Big Bear California. Along the trail is a handful of secluded homes.

Skorovass, a small, shut down, mining community in the "periphery of nowhere". Some people still live and thrive there, but mostly weekend visitors maintain the houses. The community house however seem like it was left in the middle of a show. Lots of great photographic opportunities :)

An eerily reminder of the abandoned mining town, Knaben, in southern parts of the our country.

Perhaps mining enterprises are fraught with uncertainty? This picture is a literal 'short story' by definition and in its content.

"Short story", a fitting title :)

Shot near Nazareth, PA ten years ago, on my way to Martin Guitar Company.  Shot with Sony CyberShot camera.

Even in the megalopolis Tokyo, there are areas that carry the feel of "small town".

Assort of posters billing (from left to right, top to bottom) an event hard to decode (lol), a live show by an "enka" (Japanese old-school pop music) singer with a guest saxophonist (!) with the weird title "Acoustic Concert", Japanese traditional dance and a downtown theater performance.

Shot ten years ago with Sony CyberShot in Asakusa.
