This is a scene in the same compound as The Farmhouse.

"Overland Sheepskin is a tradition in Taos, New Mexico, where we opened our first location in 1973 near the historic central plaza. Today, our store is part of the Overland compound just north of the village near Taos Mountain, the Taos Ski Valley, and the Taos Pueblo. Brimming with Native American and Southwestern charm, Taos (population 6,400) is an outdoor destination for hiking, river rafting, skiing, and snowshoeing. There is also great shopping, eating, and relaxing in the beautiful gardens overlooking the Taos Mountain."

Key Features

Wagon Wheels:

Wooden Spoke Wheel: On the left, a large, well-preserved wooden wheel with spoke construction and a rusted iron hub rests against the wooden wall.

Iron Spoke Wheels: Next to it on the right is a medium-sized, fully rusted metal wheel with thin spokes, with a portion of another iron wheel visible further to the right.

 

Building Wall & Window:

The background consists of dark, horizontal wooden log-style siding showcasing natural grain and knot textures.

Directly above the wheels is a multi-paned glass window set in a matching wooden frame, reflecting the outside light and showing light curtains inside.

 

Foreground & Ground:

The ground is covered with river stones, gravel, and scattered pieces of old rusted metal farm hardware.

Green vegetation, small wild plants, and tiny pink blossoms grow densely along the bottom left corner.

 

The Keeper of Old Wheels

The high-desert wind carried the faint scent of sagebrush and rain off the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, humming through the gaps of the wooden wagon frame parked outside the store. To the hurried traveler heading down the highway toward Taos, the collection of weathered timber, rusted iron, and hanging chili ristras might have looked like simple Southwestern decor. But to those who stopped, every piece held the weight of decades past.

Leaning against the dark log siding, a massive wooden wagon wheel rested quietly beside its rusted iron companion. The wood was deeply grooved by time and weather, yet its spokes held strong—a testament to the craftsman who shaped it long before asphalt paved the roads. Down among the river pebbles and wild foliage, bits of old farm hardware lay tucked in the shadows, slowly yielding to rust while bright summer blooms pushed up through the stone.

Inside, through the multi-paned glass window, the soft warm glow of the shop suggested comfort and refuge. But out here on the porch, time moved at a different pace. The gentle flutter of the American flag in the breeze and the silent stance of the ancient cart served as a quiet reminder of the pioneers, artisans, and travelers who had carved out a life along this stretch of New Mexico high country.

We were being watched as we walked passed this window

Winter golden hour views along Hertford Union Canal in East London. Boat in the foreground is where Barge East, a floating restaurant and bar, is currently moored.

Two elderly people, recognizable by their gray hair, are walking with a cane. In the background, the imposing entrance of the Confiserie Sacher Vienna dominates. The hotel facade is festively decorated with artistic nutcrackers and vibrant red and green foliage, a clear sign of the Christmas season. The entrance is framed by large glass windows and a striking red awning. The street is paved with gray stone slabs, adding texture to the image. The overall impression is one of urban elegance and festive atmosphere.

Full shelves in the Little Free Library at the center of Delmar, New York.

An historic, old church in our city...

This lovely stained glass arch adorns the top of the main entrance.

 

I walked by this church countless times over the years before noticing this archway. I'm glad it caught my eye and that it is now part of my portfolio.

I am still waiting on the new Fuji 80mm F2.8 macro lens to come. I am already so eager to do macro shots. I wake up in the cold morning. The room is warm and our windows are not so good in insulation. A lot of condensation is formed on the window.

 

I pulled out my Nikon D300 and Sigma 150mm macro lens to do a few abstract compositions.

 

I really look forward to the Fuji 80mm macro lens!!

 

Happy Sunday!
