Because I can…

Clouds Over Kayenta, Arizona

Highway 163 Into Monument Valley

Monument Valley

These were all taken on my circle through the Four Corners area during the summer of 2004.  I developed them as soon as I got home, but for some reason they’d just sat in my library until this week, when their turn came up in the Big Scan.  What’s so great about this new photographer’s software I’m using now (Aperture), is that I don’t need to make contact prints of everything anymore.  I can get a real good sense of what I have on film right after I’ve scanned it all in, which I’ll be doing more frequently here now that I’ve got a system set up for it. 

Sometimes you just overload when you visit a place like the Four Corners, where everywhere you look there are stunning views.  By the time I came back home in 2004 I’d completely forgotten about some of these images.  My jaw was literally dropping the other day when I looked at them after scanning them in after several years had passed.  My next photo gallery here will probably be of some of my Four Corners stuff.
