About

If ever you find yourself in the early daylight hours driving down the backroads of rural Oregon and the Pacific Northwest, and you come across a man pulled to the side of the road with a camera pointed towards an old barn or a windmill, you may have just spotted Gary Giddens.

Although all his life Gary has visualized photos in his walks through life, it has only been the past eleven years that most of those images have actually been created.  Starting on his 50th birthday he has spent the past decade working at his craft. A retired teacher and coach, a husband, father, and grandfather, Gary has had a range of different experiences that color and create story to his art.

The name Photos Less Traveled is a symbolic play on words, of course related to the famous Robert Frost Poem, “The Road Less Traveled”.  Gary seeks to find and chronicle the beauty of unique and uncommon locations that others pass by.
