Here’s another shot from the Mission of San Juan Bautista. There is a beautiful rose garden near the bell tower of the mission with some of the largest roses I’ve ever seen. Some of the flowers were as big as soup plates. Photo taken with Kodak Medalist on Ilford Delta 100. Click for a larger [...]
On our road trip to east-central Nevada in 2006 we stopped at the Cathedral Gorge State Park for a break from driving and a little hike. The park is in a very arid landscape where the sediment formations of an ancient lake bed have been shaped into grotesque towers and narrow canyons by millions of [...]
Still re-scanning old negatives… In late 2006 we traveled through large chunks of Nevada, mostly on Highway 50 and 93. This picture is from somewhere south of Ely in east-central Nevada, where mountain ranges rise to the east and west of the highway. The main roads in this part of the country are excellent, but [...]
I’ve posted a different photo from the Spruce Tree House in the Mesa Verde National Park before, but during my recent re-scanning campaign I found this very nice shot of the same place. I have fond memories of our stay in Mesa Verde. It was late in the season and some of the sights were [...]
I remember watching doublefeature movies in the St. Francis on Market Street in the early 90s for a few bucks. It has seen its last matinee a long time ago… Photo taken with Palm Centro

Almost three years ago we went on an epic road trip through a large part of Arizona and Utah and among many other amazing places we spent a day in Monument Valley. It [...]
I took the Kodak Medalist on our trip down to San Juan Bautista and shot one roll around the mission. This was the first picture that stood out when I looked at the negatives and I’m very happy with it. We were at the mission building a little bit late in the afternoon when the [...]
The trees in the parking lot next to our office turn mysterious at night… Photo taken with Palm Centro

Just found this – it’s remarkable what modern technology has done to the arts. This is one of the most amazing things I’ve seen for a while, and all it took is a group of people with a camera and a couple of buckets of paint. Very inspiring.
