Just back from a much-needed, semi-working vacation in the Southwest with F-stop, where he was shooting for a month. I enjoyed experiencing the sense of space and endless skies: quite a contrast from living in the Northeastern megalopolis. Like much of the world, the Southwest is facing grave environmental concerns, so looking at these pictures feels bittersweet. I hope future generations will be able to enjoy the same vistas that I saw.
