Wyoming Road Trip

Late afternoon on a stretch of highway between Wyoming and Utah, where the red rock formations lean into the sky like layered sedimentary books. The light here is bright but diffused, softening the edges of stop signs and directional boards, while the surrounding hills fade into a muted haze. Ludwig Favre’s road trip photographs find a quiet rhythm in these moments,vintage cars parked under flat-roofed structures, pink stucco buildings with cacti murals, and weathered wooden utility poles standing sentinel against clear blue skies. The focus is on the interplay of color and texture: the bold yellow of a motel sign, the striped umbrellas shading sun loungers, the swirling inflatable rings in a shallow pool framed by palm trees. There’s an undercurrent of stillness, even where figures move,a skateboarder on a paved path, a person walking a small dog,captured in the bright, scattered light that defines this landscape.

A weathered wooden utility pole stands against the clear blue sky, surrounded by vibrant red-flowering shrubs and a simple white wall.
