A New View of Taos
I have a wonderful new view of Taos and the mountains look stunning this cold December afternoon, topped with snow and a healthy veil of clouds.

Stolen Moments
Photography has been in my blood since high school. I started with film cameras; loved black & white especially, though now I have embraced the digital revolution. Being able to take hundreds of shots without reloading film has certainly changed the approaches. But trying to capture that image with just the right lighting, that conveys what we are feeling about the subject; that challenge will never become tiresome.
Moments I've stolen…
Sunsets
The amazing sunsets of northern New Mexico provide plenty of outlets for my obsession with the colors of dusk. The late summer and early fall sunsets have been anything but disappointing this year, even with my recent move 1000 feet down from El Salto into the hidden valley of Valdez.
The Snow Line Approacheth
As the cloud ceiling receded off of El Salto this afternoon, they revealed the encroaching snow line on Taos Mountain. Less than 1500 feet above me, the reality that winter is almost here is setting in.
The Unordinary Colors of Taos
Two nights in a row in early June provided some spectacular colors at sunset from our viewpoint on El Salto. I captured this one on the second night as the twilight was fading.
New Years Day at El Salto Falls
Our first New Years' Day in northern New Mexico consisted of a trek across frozen trails to El Salto Falls. The short hike is only about a mile from home, but provides us with a natural enjoyment, year round.
