Hello all-
I just put up a new collection of images made over the past year at various locations around the American Southwest. Comments and critiques always appreciated!

Technically excellent images, no question. On the other hand, among the images on the Southwest page are just too many that I've seen many, many times before. Seems like half the affluent participants of any photo workshop I've attended show these identical images. The mittens, the teardrop window, sunrise glow under mesa arch...
I guess these are sort of compulsory images; how about something original?
Just sayin.

I never get tired of that part of the country.  You have some great shots there.  Maybe I can get back next year...

Nice work. My favorites are the Zebra Canyon shots, which are quite different from the usual (and overdone) Antelope Canyon shots I've seen.

I hope to get to that region before long to shoot some of my own cliches.  

Thanks for sharing them.

Wonderful shots.

True that we've seen some before, but it still brings a sense of wonder and beauty about our fragile and vulnerable planet. Very inspiring.
