For those not initiated, New Mexico was at one time an absolute hotbed of photography.
In the 1890's-1960's New Mexico was host to many very famous photographers.
Ansel Adams, Georgia Totto O'Keeffe, Michael Berman, Lee Marmon (who I have met personally) and a host of extremely talented artists.
One note that I always got from the photographs of old New Mexico is a specific spirit that once you see it, it wont let you go. I wanted to try and capture some of that today. The feel of the photos from that era is almost magical and the spirits of colonial Nuevo Mexico runs deep and unique.
I hope the old term I use to hear "plantando las semillas de la espiritualidad" is welcomed here.
So I took some time today to shoot some more areas around the house and faked it with the Fuji, medium format Kiev 88 lenses and a small amount of PP but the camera was set to B&W...
Enjoy
