Welcome Visitors ...

I thought it was time to start a blog where I could comment on some of my experiences and share some of my images from my travels. I am a 66 year old ex-school teacher who has now been on the road travelling full-time to various corners of the world for seven years. Presently my wife Vivian and I are in the Southern United States for the winter...more accurately we are in New Mexico in the small town of Alamogordo. We have spent the last two months in various parts of New Mexico going where the beauty lies. Alamogordo was chosen for its proximity to the White Sands National Monument.

The image I have chosen to share were taken just yesterday at the White Sands. My wife Vivian is also a photographer (also an ex-school teacher) and she was willing to be my model in this image. The light was wonderful with periods of shade and sun. A slight wind would blow the fabric she was enclosed in which added a ceertain aspect of uncertainty to the outcome of the image. The clouds looked like they were made to order and added greater interest to the over-all result. The fabric is quite light and sheer so it reacted to the breeze and the light in some interesting ways.

So, I start my Blog from activities yesterday...January 12, 2013. I will move forward in time as well as back in time discussing images and events that I hope will interest those who find my Blog of some interest to them. I hope you will enjoy hearing a bit about my travels and what motivates me in my image making. Perhaps you will take time to go into my "Quickie Tour of My Photography" on my FAA site and then into each Gallery that interests you when you have the interest and the opportunity.

Cheers Bob
