El Presido, Tucson door photo
Here’s another door (I like doors). This time from the historic El Presido district of Tucson, Arizona. Named after the Presidio de San Augustín del Tucson and now mainly residential, its actually one of the USA’s oldest continually inhabited areas. The buildings are adobe and brick buildings in the Spanish-Mexican and Anglo-American architectural styles. It was very very quiet the afternoon I was there. I felt like I was in ghost town except of course a lot of the buildings and homes had been lovingly restored. Great for architectural photography but not so good for people pictures. Oh well you can’t have everything! Notice the big padlock on the door. 1/100 @ f8 37mm ISO 100

Canyon Road Santa Fe door photo
Slightly to the South East of downtown Santa Fe is Canyon Road, a street with wall to wall art galleries. There are over 100 places to view and purchase art in this area with most of them along Canyon Road. Most of the buildings were or still are houses built in the Pueblo style and some date back to the 1750’s. In fact it didn’t become a magnet for artists until the early 20th century. From the photographers standpoint these ‘Peublo’ style houses are colourful and ooze character. The most attractive parts are the doors and windows and this one was one of many. 1/320 @ f4.5 60mm ISO 100

The ruins of Taos Pueblo, New Mexico photo
The longest continuously inhabited place in the USA is Taos Pueblo. Someone has been living there for 1000 years and about 150 still call it home. Located about one km from the pretty little town of Taos it’s also a world heritage site and a national heritage landmark. The day we were there the weather was perfect and great for photography. Search the net and you will see lots of photos of this fascinating place but this is my take. 1/800 @ f8 64mm ISO100
