At least on this stretch of the Chicago River, tour boat and pleasure craft have replaced the industrial traffic, and the wonderful architecture of the city shines above the waters. Eaves, Chris (July 20, 2014). Chicago River [Photograph]. Chicago, Illinois. Shot on a Canon 40D […]
The defunct Missouri-Kansas-Texas railroad line is now the nation’s longest train-to-trail path, running 240 miles from end to end. This section, just outside Herman, Missouri, offers views of the Missouri River in addition to farmland and rural America.
The magical coast of central-California should be on everyone’s bucket list, or at the very least, on the list of top road trip adventures. There’s a wonderfulness in driving this section of California Route 1, and the sunsets, like everywhere on the U.S. West Coast, […]
2012 was a great year for Chicago Green Fest, and A-list guests stacked the lineup cards. Moments before taking the main stage, the legendary Rev. Jesse Jackson paused behind the curtain in a private moment with another famous guest, Van Jones. Eaves, Chris (May 5, […]

Visiting Puerto Rico (even before Hurricane Maria) was a reminder of how diverse the USA really is, in every sense of the word. We avoided San Juan and visited the southwestern end of the island for a week, and we enjoyed it immensely.
If you are enjoying the photos on this site, please consider purchasing one through my official store at Fine Art America. I’m featuring a dozen or so of my favorite photos, and over time I’ll adjust what is offered. Thank you!
I decided it would be fun to shoot with a black & white disposable camera. That lasted one camera/roll. There’s something freeing about only worrying about composition. Not that this photo has any; I just like the truck. Eaves, Chris (October 2011). Engine 116 [Photograph]. […]
