We are large, we contain multitudes--Walt Whitman.

 

I grew up in West Texas--then migrated to Denver. After living there 25 years, I decided NM was the place for me. I've been in ABQ for almost 10 years now, and it occurs to me, that they don't call this the land of enchantment for nothing!

 

I've been on Flickr for almost 5 years now, and I can easily say, that it's been one of the most fulfilling chapters of my life. Thank you all, my Flickr Friends!

I hope to have him as a friend for a very long time. Thank you , Don, for your beautiful photos.

Pictures of so many aspects (small and large) of his beautiful, colourful, moody NM. Pictures seen with his heart too. Like his warm and sincere comments when he comes visiting your photos. I love the way Don looks around him and shares his vision with us. Thank you Don for your wonderful pictures. Always a pleasure to spent a moment in NM with you :)

Here's the thing about sellinstix (a.k.a. Don): 1. He says in lives in Texas... but he shoots New Mexico like no one. Contrary to what Richard Bradford might have said, his photos are as close to heaven as he is to Texas. 2. In that sense, his work is soft, it is gentle, and it invites the viewer to pause a little,… Read more

Here's the thing about sellinstix (a.k.a. Don): 1. He says in lives in Texas... but he shoots New Mexico like no one. Contrary to what Richard Bradford might have said, his photos are as close to heaven as he is to Texas. 2. In that sense, his work is soft, it is gentle, and it invites the viewer to pause a little, relax, and enjoy a moment of peace. 3. He also likes to look at other people's work, and when he says something about it, it's never a knee-jerk formula, but always a nice thought that comes from his heart rather than from his brains...! Thanks, Don! You always make me happy!
