La Luna, Las Vegas Window, Taos Gallery Show. 12-07-22

Greetings from stormy San Cristobal. I was looking forward to seeing la luna’s occultation of mars tonight. It will happen, although I doubt it will be visible in this neck of the woods with all the clouds and the chance of snow. My fingers are crossed that there will be a thinning out of the clouds at just the right time. Here’s a photo I shot in the early morning hours two years ago.

Before Covid 19 I made a few trips to Las Vegas, New Mexico. Las Vegas is a fun town to spend time wandering around, loitering on park benches, visiting antique stores, and eating at some of the fun restaurants. One of my favorite things to do is window stalking with a camera.

  1. Yum, I had enchiladas in a restaurant/bakery in Las Vegas, their specialty is flour tortillas but the food was what I liked.
    Sculptures around Denver Int’l ate similar to the Railyard shot.

  3. I haven’t seen Dylan and Anika since before they were teenagers. I would sure like to see pics and hear what they are doing.

  4. I love the rail yard photo with all it’s lines and shadows. Terrific! AND, of course, I love the wind mills dispersed between the G A S sign. That belongs on the cover of the New Yorker!

    • Thanks so much, Bob. The reflection made it different from other versions I’ve seen without it. Always looking for and alternative, I included the reflection. G
