This year after a wonderful trip with wonderful photographers careening all
over New Mexico and a further trip to Vancouver, B.C. I disappered into the dark room for two months.
Altogether a rewarding experience. Several of the New Mexico photogs are trying to put together a book
about our experiences. Editing is a, well evil task. Below a photo from the wonderful Van Dusen Botanical gardens,
