Last weekend Mike and I (and TC) went to Truth or Consequences, NM. We stayed in Elephant Butte Lake State Park the first night. 2nd night and location to be my next post. I have truly become interested in having "souvenir", or "memory" photos of our excursions, and just life events, so that gets mixed in with the "playful" art side of me these days. Photographs to look at in the future and remember the places, lighting, feelings, fun, good food, funny things, challenges, life. I've said this before, I tend to "mix 'em all up" in terms of snapshots and more "worked" images that may go into some kind of art piece sometime. I know consistency: doing one or the other, not both in the same blog, or at least not the same post, is preferable, but hey, here it is. With love.
