Highway Americana, Vernakular's inaugural series is a poetic journey along the myriad of highways connecting urban and
rural landscapes. Encompassing an 18-month period and clocking over 10,000 miles through 34 states - from the coastal
communities of California, through the majestic mountains of the Rockies, to the Dutch counties of Pennsylvania - it was the
ultimate visual road trip across America. The thousands of photographs taken by Vernakular founder, Raoul E. Calleja were
all shot between 1999 and 2000 and was the impetus in forming Vernakular Photo Designs. The final images in this series
were taken in Colorado, Utah, Montana, and Mississippi.
