Some close-to-home adventuring over the past couple weeks - also, great photo opportunities.
September 1 - hiking in Placitas, NM
 |
| mountains and mesas |
 |
| cactus framing Boatstone (don't think it's Shiprock, don't know what it actually is) |
 |
| arrowhead stone |
 |
| juniper |
 |
| dead trees are beautiful, too |
 |
| barbs |
 |
| not sure what this is... |
September 3 - hiking in Placitas, part II. These photos were taken with my phone.

 |
| phantom river stripes |
 |
| SMLE |
 |
| trying (a little too hard?) to look rugged |
September 6 - biking out in Narnia (as I call it - the undeveloped outskirts of my neighborhood). These photos were also taken with my phone.
 |
| canyon collapse |
September 8 - biking out in Narnia, part II
 |
| a different view of the mountains + mesas |
 |
| my elementary school |
 |
| Sandia-scape |
 |
| desert? or grassland? |
 |
| more barbed-wire fencing |
September 16 - biking along some unexplored (and closed) roads in Middlebury, VT
 |
| Otter Creek |
 |
| well, fine, cairns are cool in their own way... |
 |

 |
| bouquet of wildflowers |
 |
| call me - I don't have a crosscut anymore, but... |
It feels so good to have a camera in my hands again. Don't get me wrong - I've taken some pretty good photos on my phone recently, but there's nothing like an actual button to close the shutter, manually altering the exposure, direct focus controls... There's just so much more I can do with my Lumix, and my photoshoot today just made me so happy. That's all I wanted to say. Hope you enjoyed the pictures, and, of course, there will be more the next time I have an impromptu photoshoot!
