Anza Borrego State Park, California, 2007.
I am reading again Jon Krakauer’s book “Into the Wild”. I am completely fascinated by the story and I really loved the movie. A friend of mine offered me the soundtrack by Eddie Vedder and I listen to it very often when I am working on my paintings. Although I am not independent and radical enough to imagine – and make - a journey away from the civilization like Chris McCandless did, his odyssey echoes deeply in me. I always loved the landscapes of the Western United States, I am attracted to them since I was a teenager. I feel definitely alive when I am there, surrounded by emptiness, rocks, endless horizons...

Welcome to the Blog World Michele! Yours is definitely beautiful...
I'm glad you have the link to the Eddie Vedder video. He's wonderful (and he's going to be here at the Spreckels in April...)but I digress. It's interesting to hear the perspective of someone who saw the movie before reading the book.
Fredo loved this movie and I tell you a secret : she cried . I didn't , I love the message in it ..wonderful movie and I love the photos of nature on it
