The Southwest - Canyon Lands and Indian Country, 2
The vast confines of the southwest, from Phoenix to Arches National Park, provided our photography group with a cornucopia of landscapes and people. We photographed the artifacts of civilization, too, from contemporary architecture to prehistoric art. Some of what we saw looked like a dreamworld. Some of what we saw was kitschy. All of it offered to connect us to a wider world.

Grass and Power Tower Near Kayenta, Arizona The tower has, to my eye, the look of a figure out of an Anasazi petroglyph.

Landscape Near Kayenta, Arizona An ancient core of a long-dead volcano, a tower carrying power lines to the west, and a discarded tire tell the story and the rise and fall of nature and civilization.

Cactus Jelly at the Wonderful Cameron Trading Post The trading post, east of the Grand Canyon, offers what seems like acres of space offering jewelry, clothing, blankets, groceries, general merchandise, great meals in the tin-roofed restaurant, and plenty of Cactus Jelly.

Mormon Tea Reaches Skyward at the Wupatki Ruins The Wupatki Ruins - there are actually several sets of ruins - lie northeast of Flagstaff, Arizona, and not too far from massive Sunset Crater. Humans probably moved into the area not long after the eruption, in the 11th Century AD. Sometimes I don't need to photograph an overall scene. And I didn't want to this day, because skies were gray, which I think made a poor backdrop for the ruins Instead, I concentrated on closer subjects. Most of the time at Wupatki, l employed a borrowed 180mm f/2.8 lens.

His Last Day on the Ranch We spied a young cowboy - from Ohio - on his last day at work at a resort along the Colorado River. He graciously assented to being photographed by our group. Soon he would be back to Ohio.
