Love dirt roads

St Petersburg Beach Florida. I'm burnt out by gorgeous red sunsets and avoid them. This one is a little different.

You can walk right into this house that was built over 1000 years ago and look across the plateau at the painted desert just as the inhabitants did.

Thanksgiving in Oceanside, Calif

Originally a slide I took in the early 70's with a Canon FT and 1.8 50mm lens. Scanned and crafted into a dramatic action shot.

One of many 14,000' plus peaks in Colorado. Above 11,000' there are no trees.

Looking for foliage I found this instead...

Open aperture, small depth of field, blurred background.

Well over 100 degrees in Phoenix but still cool enough for a bit of snow at 14,000 ft.

I was intrigued by the leaf on the edge of the falls.

I went back to this barn and retook the shot after about 10 years. It looks pretty battered compare to the previous shot. Meyer, Arizona.
