Pueblos of New Mexico

Over New Year I went with my wife and younger brother to New Mexico to visit and photograph the Pueblos. New mexico has 19 different pueblos all owned by different Native American Indian tribes. Many of them are still inhabited and have been for over a thousand years.

I took my Hasselblad 500c/m and my large format Shen Hao. Below are a few of the medium format shots I took.


San Lorenso de Picuris Church. Hasselblad 500c/m - Ilford Delta 400



It was forbiden to take photos or sketches of the Santo Domingo Pueblo. As we were leaving I noticed this old abandoned church. Hasselblad 500c/m - Ilford Delta 400



The Taos Pueblo was one of the most impressive. It has been inhabited for over a thousand years and is truely a work of art. Hasselblad 500c/m - Ilford Delta 400



This is all that remains of the first Taos church. It was destroyed by the Spanish while many men, women and children were seeking safety from within. Hasselblad 500c/m - Ilford Delta 400



I noticed this unique door at one of the small homes in the Taos Pueblo. I liked the hand prints and the American flag as a curtain. Hasselblad 500c/m - Ilford Delta 400

Utah Lake - More Type 55 Polaroid

This week Tavis and I drove to the west side of Utah Lake. I only took two photos and here they are. The chemicals from the polaroid did not cover the image correctly causing the large dark area on the photo of the tree.

F45 @ 1/60 sec - 210mm lens w/red 25 filter - Type 55 Polaroid - Shen Hao 4x5 Camera

AF Canyon

I went up American Fork Canyon again. Make a couple exposures. One of them I accidentally fried. Kind of sucks when each shot costs $4.

This is the one that wasn't ruined.

Stuck in the snow

This photo was shot with Type 55 Polaroid using my 4x5 Shen Hao. The clouds where low, the snow was falling and my truck was stuck.

More portraits from Sugar Pine Ranch Rally

Here's just a few more portraits I wanted to add to this thing.

Sugar Pine Ranch Rally

I spent Labor Day weekend riding my Sportster to Mancos, CO. A small town just out side Durango. Mancos is the home of the Sugar Pine Ranch Rally, a few small business', a couple homes and not much else. The rally was fun. I met up with an old friend who drove up from Arizona and enjoyed camping, BBQs and music. I also took about 25 more portraits for my American Biker Project.
