Within a day I was clearly overwhelmed with the intensity of the trip. I began to look at details of my journey and tried to use my camera not just to document the story, but also the personal aspects of the trip. I shot the view out of my hotel room each morning. I photographed where I was each time I missed my son and wife – well I missed them constantly, so I shot when it felt so strong that I felt I was about to lose it. I also shot the Tea Party experience aboard a bus travelling 7,000 miles across America.
