Got to spend some time in the darkroom today making prints. Every trip there is such a learning experience. I do absolutely love it though. It is great to make something that is tangible, that you can hold in your hand. No AI. No computers. Just the

Some scans from my first roll of film on my Retina IIIc. I’m pretty dang happy with that 60 something year old camera! The lens is so sweet. Went out and explored the Albuquerque Botanical Gardens. First time there. I will definitely be back wi

A beautiful morning in the Sandia Mountains relaxing, enjoying the experience, and taking in the beauty around me. Spending the time surrounded by all this beauty, makes me feel that we should protect our land, sky, and water even more. I’m thr

I’ve been spending some time in Albuquerque lately. I really like the area.

On the last trip, the Rio Grand ran dry. This is only the second time on the Albuquerque portion of the Rio Grand in the last 40 years. Water is the life blood of civi
