Road Trip

Bluffton-based photographer Guido Flueck said he set out to capture the South – the real South.

“I wanted to see how people live outside the cities,” Flueck said.

In a journey that spanned more than 8,000 miles, Flueck drove through many of the country’s southern states, including Georgia, Arkansas, Arizona, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Florida, New Mexico, with stops in Southern California cities Los Angeles and San Diego.

Flueck chronicled his trip with black-and-white photos because, he said, “black and white tells the story much deeper; there is only black and white, no color distraction.”

Here is a look at some of the impressions Flueck captured.
