Jamescapes // 1

I’m introducing a new series to the blog, a series wherein James will get his much deserved 15 minutes. After three years of my voice dominating this space, it seemed only fair to give the man his moment in the sun.

Also, it’s become abundantly clear that while I enjoy photography immensely, landscapes and capturing the environment around me is not my strong suit. I like taking pictures of people, namely the girls. This blog and my Instagram (@blogalacart) are a glaring representation of that fact. James, however, has a knack for landscape. Check out his insane Instagram feed for proof (@JamesalaCart). I highly recommend you follow along.

And so, without further ado, James Whaley Cart ladies and gentlemen, in all of his sarcastic, ridiculous glory. Keep in mind, he wanted to name the series “James’s most awesomest Landscapes Ever recorded EVER!”  But I’m only giving him so much power…

I’m the ish when it comes to photography; both of my friends agree. And I’m granting you the privilege of seeing my masterpieces here on some sort of regular basis — or until Ashley says that I’m messing up her blog, or being too much of a butt head. I’ll focus primarily on landscapes, because I can’t take good people photos…because I’m not good with people. People clam up when when you call them lanky, out of place, or dead looking. Trees on the other hand, don’t give a shit.

In any case, enjoy a taste of life in splendid Vermont and Cartwheel Farm as captured through my amateur photography skills.

1. Ahh Vermont. How Gorgeous!!…please ignore that the only part of this image that’s in Vermont is the stone. The rest is Massachusetts.

2. We love Vermont and all her autumnal splendor!!!…again, this is actually Mass.

3. Old timber farm in….Mass.

4. Finally — There she is! The French Ver-Mont and her glorious Green Mountains in almost peak foliage colors!!…Just ignore that tree and those barns, which are in ugly Massachussetts.

5. Hard to be unhappy when this is your (neighbor’s) back yard….Mostly Vermont in this photo.

Until next week folks! And keep in mind, we can see the Massachusetts border from Cartwheel Farm, thus the blending of states.
