February 20 is the birthday of iconic landscape photographer #AnselAdams who we #quote and back with a picture of #SpiderRock in #CanyondeChelly. If this #quotograph speaks to you please #repost it.

Here from a trip to New Mexico: Silver City, Albuquerque, Santa Fe, White Sands NP, Canyon de Chelly NM.

This was quite a moment. In Canyon de Chelly National Monument, I took a canyon tour with a #Navajo Guide.

This location is the White House Ruins. I created this image by stitching together numerous photographs. I had to lay on the ground to catch the sky. Standing at the foot of this massive cliff, at this ancient site, was a moment I will carry evermore.
