vermejo 2011

ah, vermejo park ranch, new mexico…

this place never seems to get old…and this year could have been the best yet.

this fantastic opportunity arose for me more than three years ago, and since then, i decided to start a new side of my business…

random thought, writing

please stop the madness…

i told myself when i started this blog that i would never post anything political….  well, i knew it was only a matter of time before i broke down….

there is a man that’s running for president that i have been following since 2001.  and i think he’s worth listening to, regardless of whether you lean left or right.

he just makes since…. and he always has.  please take a minute to watch this quick video.

it’s the last i’ll mention politics… i promise!!  but please feel free to leave your thoughts…. thanks for your consideration….

the san diego skyline

my commercial job in san diego was a success!  and i even had a little bit of spare time to explore this beautiful city…

night shots from corodano island…

fireworks!  i think it was a navy graduation of sorts, but not sure.

ocean beach…

surfers near ocean beach.

the skyline from cabrillo monument…

a few more from coronado during the day…

san diego is an incredibly beautiful city.  i had a great time exploring the skyline from all angles.

now i’m looking forward to returning in april for my cousin’s wedding!

preview: vermejo

i’m sorry for all of these “previews”, but i’m just very anxious to share some of my newest work before i have full posts ready.

as you may know from previous posts (see vermejo, nm, bear encounter: proof, vermejo again, and 4 weeks in vermejo), i have been blessed enough the last three years to have great friends and clients that hire me to go out to vermejo park ranch in new mexico for a few weeks every summer to shoot.  and last year, vermejo hired me to come out for another two weeks to shoot for them.

well this year is no different, and i’m back for two weeks in august.

i must admit, it is one of my favorite jobs of all time.  i hope it never ends.

so this year, with my new star picture obsession, i decided to try to capture the beauty of this place at night.

here are a few i shot last night…

i’ll share a lot more images when i get back.  the internet here is very slow.
