Nomad Viking

by Road



Hornbeck Nomad 14 On Still Water At Sunset

The water was so calm and still I didn’t even moor the canoe. She just sat there.

I almost wrote “and didn’t move a muscle.”

This boat is as close to a living thing as I’ve ever put on water. She glides smooth as glass, responsive to every slip and turn of the paddle. It’s as if she anticipates and aids my every move, waiting for me to become as much a boatman as she is a watercraft.

I remember looking at the images that evening and thinking “Damn, these are cool. Viking like!”

Looking forward to playing more with water-level shots and reflections on both calm and disturbed water.

On the Road in America

THE BIG PAUSE of 2020-21

ROADDUDE.COM is usually about one man’s travels and photography around North America.

During The Big Pause of 2020-21, however, it is about making quality cloth & fabric face masks and face coverings for the public. Every mask purchased enables more to be made for donation.

I have made, sold, and donated thousands, as far away as Sudan.

Stay safe, stay clean, stay healthy!

Thank you for your orders and support!


Kudos from Customers for Face Masks I make, sell, and donate throughout the pandemic:
