I love wandering around neighborhoods of other cities and towns.
It seems like everything is just more colorful, more eclectic, more interesting, more fun than anything you can find at home. I’m sure that is because we tend to ‘not see’ things at home because we’re on auto pilot most of the time. We don’t expect to see anything out of the ordinary – so we usually don’t.
At least that’s how I think it is.
Think about how many times we’re driving somewhere and we get there but don’t remember much about the drive itself. We wonder how we managed to get there safely…did we even stop at that last red light??!!
These images are all from a very colorful, very eclectic, very interesting and fun neighborhood in Santa Fe.

Can you tell I have a ‘thing’ for blue?





Not your average family owned restaurant!
I’ve been seeing hay bales on the sides of the highway for years and have always wanted to photograph them. I was finally able to grab a few shots this weekend. It would have been better to be there a little earlier in the day but the timing couldn’t be helped. Also, the sun was so bright that I could barely make out the composition on the LCD – basically I was just hoping for the best. But at least I know they will be worth the effort on my next road trip and will plan accordingly!
When the weather is dreary and its raining out; the last thing I want to do it take my camera out in it. But this kind of weather can offer some unique opportunities for image-making.
