Road to Monument Valley
This gives a pretty good idea of the Monuments you’re about to drive into…

Monuments
This is one of the most famous views in Monument Valley. I like to frame it with the dirt road in order to give a better idea of the size of those things!

John Ford Point
Does this scene look familiar? You’ve probably seen it in a couple of John Ford westerns!

In the middle of nowhere: a school bus stop where you wouldn’t really expect it!

Douglas Kirkland
Digital Journalist has featured a gallery of photographs from Douglas Kirkland’s book, Freeze Frame. There are revealing pictures of John Lennon in Spain, one of Jeanne Moreau on Hollywood Boulevard, director Herb Ross holding aloft ballerina Leslie Browne as Baryshnikov looks on and Director James Cameron instructing Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet on the set of Titanic. The photos of Kirkland with his subjects are memorable in their own way.
Kirkland’s wife, Françoise, lets you into the world their assignments provided:
“We got involved in the lives of our subjects, sometimes spending weeks at a time with them. Julie Christie took me shopping at Biba, the hip store in Swinging London. Brigitte Bardot ignored me, wanting Douglas all to herself. While we were sitting with John Lennon in a minibus in Hamburg a mob of fans arrived and rocked the bus. We stayed up all night discussing politics with Melina Mercouri and her Greek refugee friends. On the set of A Countess From Hong Kong, Marlon Brando delighted in teasing me and making me blush, while on Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid, Robert Redford and I discussed love and philosophy between takes. Once when Douglas and I tramped through the corridors of the Beverly Hills Hotel with our photo equipment, well-appointed guests complained to the management about the hippies really taking over!”
