I find a profound joy in the possibilities of losing myself in the isolation of the Sandhills, even if it’s just for a few hours over a long weekend - especially when summer rains have made the grasses a brilliant green and millions of Prairie Sunflowers are in bloom along the road and hillsides. There are hundreds of miles of narrow asphalt and gravel roads winding through the landscape and hardly a human being to be found. It’s an experience I am still hoping to capture in a photograph.
