"Pottery Shards"The scattered stone building blocks from the walls of this Hisatsinom alcove look like shards of pottery strewn about.
Last Wednesday April 7th, 2021 we created these portraits for her up at Spider Web Camp, CO Bar Ranch where she works.
Leann creates miniature Ranch life paintings on leather for ball caps, pins and earings.
Her work is outstanding

Vic and Jaime Howell and their extended family are always fun and easy to photograph. We made this family portrait on a very windy evening out at Spider Web Camp on Babbitt's CO Bar ranch north of Flagstaff.
Contact us to get your family portrait.

We made our way off the paved road and off the dirt road to a barely visible two track
We finally drove as far as we dared on the sand dunes and found our spot. With umbrellas and cameras we began walking in the mud and puddles of water towards the edge and misty vista. It was nice of Beth to have a bright umbrella.
All this water in the Painted Desert!
Chocolate waterfalls everywhere.
Beth ;-)
As we started to head back to the car, Beth said wow -look at that waterfall! We could not hike or drive around to it before dark so I got a few images using my tripod. The fall itself is about 100 feet high.
This is a closer view of it.
Earlier on my scramble up the rocky side the clouds did open up for a moment.
This burned tree trunk from a fire a few years ago looked like a Yeti took a couple of bites out of it.
And of course, there was an old Ent, telling all those young Aspen trees to bring on their color!

Remoteness of People and Place
I will be one of five presenters this Thursday evening at Dark Sky Brewing on N. Beaver. This is part of the Flagstaff Mountain Film Festival happenings here in Flagstaff. Something new and a bit vulnerable for me so come by and see if I crash into the depths of the abyss and burn or rise to the summits of people and place.
Thursday, February 16, 2017 at 5:30pm - 7:00pm

One is of the San Francisco Peaks from the North side nestled on the rim of Colton Crater just outside of Flagstaff Arizona.
The other is the a Pictograph Panel found in Canyon Del Muerto, the north branch of Canyon De Chelly. It depicts the Spanish Governor Narbona's 1805 raid into the canyon.
This afternoon I had Deana take a picture of me with my arm out the window of our vehicle so I could become the pilot of this vintage B-17. I also added a photo of my camera's lens in the engine cowling.
One of the young guys in the class saw my page from a few seats away and said: "What game is that? I definitely want to play it, whatever it is!"
In order to actually learn how to use Photoshop, which is so much fun, and creative, I have been taking a Photoshop Class at Coconino County Community College taught by Tim Fox. Here is a fun play on a web site mock up with some images and ideas that I have been rolling around in my head.
The bomber is an image I took on our first visit to Hawaii a few months ago. It sits next to hanger #7 on Ford Island at Pearl Harbor's air museum.
The Route 66 shot is just west of Ashfork off of I-40 and is a nice way to get off of the main highway on your way to Seligman for ice cream at the Snow Cap.
