Welcome to Backroad's Website!

(Formerly keanespics, or Keane's Pictures)

Dead Horse Point State Park
That's me in Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah

Introduction

All right, let's get right into it. What creds do I have?

None! Well, that was easy.

I have taken pictures since I was a kid, and in the '90's I started to fulfilled my travel bug and visited a lot of places. I admit, that's not a whole lot to put on the CV, lol.

(To be fair, my career was in computers, but photography has been a serious hobby longer than my career.)

Otherwise, what you see is what you get. But I do have another philosophy. If you want to take amazing photos, go to places that you can't help but take amazing photos. Take Dead Horse Point in the photo above, for example. You could have taken that image with a potato, and it would have looked amazing. Beyond that, you're on your own, but I do have some notes available...


This Website - Things to know

Sunset
Sunset, Superior National Forest, Minnesota. September 1995.
If you don't want to read all this, you can jump directly to the "main" index, Places By Type. The button at the top of the page will get you there...

This place for the last couple of decades, has been known as keanespics.com, or Keane's Pictures. However, everything changed all at once. Not only how the website worked internally with a new user interface, but a new hosting service, so I decided to just set up a new domain.

That's why this is version 5.0 of an apparently new website. If you want to know more, see About This Site, where you'll get more information than you probably wanted.

If you were looking for a page that was on Keanespics, it's someplace here on this site. The structure of the site has changed, but the content should be all there. If you can't find it, contact me. With that out of the way...

This is a picture website. Anything else is a bonus. The entire site is based on "Places". The criteria needed to be a "Place"?

1. I was there.
2. I took a few pictures.

Well, that was easy.

But there are some rules. (These aren't the only ones. There are more later.)


Site Organization

There's something like 18,000 images on this site, but it's not as overwhelming as you might think. By default, the images are grouped as follows.

That means by default, the entire site is grouped by type. So no matter how you got to that page, it will be in the "Places by Type" hierarchy.

There are, however, three... maybe four ways the Places are indexed.

So here are some more rules. Or at least some more guidelines.

All the video that used to be on this site is slowly being re-rendered. The finished ones will be on my video page, as well as on my YouTube Page.

And (almost) finally, I did try to make an effort to be a bit coherent. Let me know if I failed someplace...


If you want to read about the history of this site, the equipment I use, how to decode the filenames and other stuff you probably don't want to read, click on the About This Site button at the bottom of all the Place Pages.

And finally, send a comment! Feedback, good or bad, is the only way to improve the site: [email protected]. Alternately, there should be a link on how to contact me at the bottom of each page...


Legal stuff

I own all the pictures and images on this site (unless otherwise noted.) Anyone is free to link to my site, but please use the html page, not the image itself.

You do not have my permission to use any of my images on another web site or any other publication. There is a "Contact Me" link on every page.

Enjoy!
Keane
