Standing with a camera on a busy city street corner may seem like the opposite of wandering down a country road with a tripod. Both situations, though, provide rich opportunities for profound photographs.
Majestic mountains have the power to move us, from sublime views of mountain ranges to intimate scenes of mountain valleys. The ocean is also another compelling subject for photographers, in all its myriad forms.
I took these photographs during the course of a week spent exploring Death Valley, the Mojave Desert and the gold and silver mining regions of western Nevada. Many other semi-abandoned towns in western Nevada share a similar history, starting with the discovery in the late 19th century of rich ore deposits and the subsequent exhaustion or declining profitability of the mines. The timeless and evocative moonscapes of the deserts and Death Valley lie in eloquent contrast with the fleeting human enterprises of the area.
An exhibition of photographs by Neil Goodwin will be held at the Martha's Vineyard Film Center in the Feldman Family Artspace Gallery in Vineyard Haven, MA.
I always thought of Floyd as a Vermonter born and bred, but one of the first things I learned was that he was born in Boston and grew up in Albany. His mother was from Sharon, Vermont, He hated the city, but told me he had figured out how to make it exciting. He said his father was a “vagabond”, running bootleg liquor for the mafia during prohibition, even taking Floyd along.
At 97, Floyd Van Alstyne is part of a shrinking cohort of people who fought in World War Two. His experience in Italy was harrowing, but it all began with what was essentially a secret mission to Churchill, Manitoba on the shore of Hudson Bay.
He told me he had been in the local logging camps since the age of 16. When Pearl Harbor was attacked, December 7, 1941, he enlisted at the age of 20. What followed came as a complete surprise and it took him to the subarctic, thousands of miles from the front lines.
Coming on November 10, 2017. Floyd told me that his life on the farm and in the logging camps of Vermont were what prepared him for the military and for the War. Life in the woods had made him tough and strong and by the time he entered the army he “was used to living dangerously.” So, when he had to face combat in the invasion of Italy in 1942, he “could take it better than some.”
Coming on November 24, 2017. Back in Vermont, Floyd and his large family operate a working farm and they all are part of the annual production of hundreds lot gallons of maple syrup - all of it dependent on the vagaries of weather and climate.
“I never went to high school. I went into the logging camps when I was 16.” And he went on to say, it was the best education he ever had. Using double-bitted axes literally sharp enough to shave with, he learned the old fashioned logging trade at a time when it was all done by hand and with horses and oxen. “It’s one of the most dangerous jobs there is.” Floyd has stayed with logging all his life and now operates a sawmill on his farm with his two grown sons.

The first film about the wolf made entirely in the wild, this was shot in the Canadian Northwest Territories along the Arctic circle and is a living portrait of the tundra wolf and its principal prey, the barren ground caribou seen through three seasons and a migration of hundreds of miles. Using pioneering photographic techniques to obtain unique animal behavior footage, it tells the story of the wolf, the predator that inhabits the human imagination like no other creature. It is one of many examples of the ways in which a top predator keeps the breeding stock of its prey strong by culling the weak and the sick. Such predators can prevent overpopulation of prey species and the benefits are seen throughout their shared ecosystem.
This film is especially relevant now that wolves have been restored (2/2022) to the U.S. endangered species list but are still being killed legally in large numbers and in all seasons by ranchers, farmers and trophy hunters in some western states.
