To be honest, while I did get some photos I liked, the things that seemed so photographically alluring when I caught only fast glimpses and had not way to photograph them were not that great when I got close. But I tried, at least. near Santa Fe, New Mexico photographed 9.20.2026

I found this little cemetery up the hill from the regular one, which is noted on the map as the Catholic Cemetery. The map didn’t give this a one a name. The two plastic trash bags looped over the post looked like a pair of droopy angel wings. near Abiquiu, New Mexico photographed 9.19.2026

Every time I go my attention is caught by something small; this time it was the array of crosses on the walls. Bonus points go to the pieces of hay embedded into the adobe and the way they lit up on the shadowed wall. ruins of Santa Rosa de Lima near Abiquiu, New Mexico photographed 9.19.2026

My favorite part of the whole scene is the way the “S” in “DRUMS” is actually upside down. That thrills me to level I can’t understand or describe. Sometimes is really IS the little things that matter the most. near Santa Fe, New Mexico photographed 9.20.2026 #roadtrip

This little building is right beside a scuba-diving location in New Mexico. So the potential does exist for a scuba- or swimming-related emergency, in addition to just normal emergency stuff that happens. Blue Hole Santa Rosa, New Mexico photographed 9.18.2026

We’ve had two yard cats for four or five years. In exchange for our feeding them, they ignore us. The closest they ever get is when they sit at the door and stare at us. Or, like this cat just now, drool all over themselves *while* staring at us. Lubbock, Texas photographed 9.27.2026

It might have been those clouds over the mountains, making it feel more dramatic. Or the particular arrangement of that car, the waste bin, and traffic barrels. Or maybe it was the sign with the jumbo burger that was indeed jumbo. This time, I stopped. Española, New Mexico photographed 9.19.2026

•asleep (in jesus)• The way rain in northern New Mexico works is that it comes in hard monsoon-y showers in the summer. Between showers this day (I could hear a lot of thunder), I found puddles and reflections. Oh, and mud. Catholic Cemetery Abiquiu, New Mexico photographed 9.19.2026

When I made this photo, I was pretty sure it was about the red barricade and the bright yellow on the other parts of the street. As ut turned out, though those are just colors accenting all the hard-edges rectangles. Only the clouds escaped. Saint Louis, Missouri photographed 9.2.2026

The hotel was nice enough. But it could have used a little modernization of the interior design, which felt stuck in 1996 or early 1997. Also, my room smelled faintly of dill pickles. Saint Louis, Missouri photographed 8.30.2026

Arch. Saint Louis. In addition to THE arch, I found these arches. Their job was to hold up a ramp into a parking garage, and as far as I could tell they were doing what they were supposed to do. (The parking garage itself is abandoned.) Saint Louis, Missouri photographed 9.2.2026

I was in Saint Louis for a week; the hotel was across the street from the arch. I saw it many times every day and my challenge to myself was to photograph it from non-traditional angles. This was made from inside the visitor’s center. Gateway Arch Saint Louis, Missouri photographed 8.30.2026
