SURROUNDED BY THE BEAUTY AND CHARM of Charleston, it’s hard to fathom the breadth of the American continent. You realize this more vividly as you drive across this expansive country—as you navigate the freeways of large cities, as you pass town after town, remote valley after remote valley, mountain range after incredible mountain range, often seeing just one or two homes, or none, along lone stretches of road.

The slide show below gives a small taste of the immensity and grandeur of America. It is a journey that began in northern California and ended in Charleston at the Ravenel Bridge. The pictures were shot as I was driving along Highway 50 (“The Lonely Highway”) as well as Interstates 70, 40, and 26.
