Keynote Speakers: Keep on Trucking

I recently watched motivational speaker and photographer Steve Uzzell’s keynote preview video again and in a post-July 4th patriotic fever was struck by the beauty of the natural places in our country as depicted in his work: in particular his award-winning campaign for a trucking line he did some years ago for Yellow Freight. There’s something very uniquely American about long-haul trucking culture, and though I’d never thought about it clearly before, truckers really do criss-cross some of this country’s most gorgeous landscapes and following them around provides for some great photo opportunities (providence, he calls it). Gas prices these days mean that they spend thousands to fill up…but oh, to be on the open road in places like these!
