“You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” –– Ansel Easton Adams
Never has rising before the sun and spending the entire day on ones feet been any more rewarding than when the subject is a blend of man-made antiquity, modern architecture and mother nature. Come with us. We traverse mountain, canyon and coastal trails, river beds, vineyards, aged to ancient village alleyways, modern canyons of stone, steel and glass – from new to hundreds, even thousands of years old, where people live, work and play, where tourists amble in awe – where light, color and texture fill the imagination. How many have come this way? How many respect what they have seen and where they have been? This is our world, so let there be inspiration wherever, whenever. And as the inspiration comes, we will share images and thought…
