iPhone shot & processed

More iPhone shots today; I just don’t have the energy to process the Nikon shots in LR until I get home.

As you know, I love old signs (and I found some good ones in TUS; I’m excited to show them to you). But my newfound obsession is Doors! I found some good ones today and will look for more tomorrow. I’ll start a new Gallery of Doors when I get home. Why haven’t I been paying attention to doors? Why Clifford? Why!?

Another good day of just worrying about photography and nothing else. Nothing. Or should I say focusing. Another roll of 120 and 35mm in the bag and a hundred more digital shots.

Up at 04:30 to be in position for sunrise up on the mountain. The shot I planned didn’t work out, so I pivoted at the last minute and made the best of it. Then I headed down into the valley to check out the Sonora Desert Museum for a few hours, then went for a nice walk around Old Town Tucson looking for doors.

Had lunch, then went back to the hotel for a short nap before getting in position for sunset to get the rest of the old signs I wanted. Working the sunrise and sunset hours is messing with my sleep! LOL.

I’ll be up for sunrise tomorrow, then headed back home. It’s been a wonderful trip, one that I really needed to take my mind off of insurance, cancer, work, and so many life changes.

Down in Stray Pixels, you will see hair on a cactus that I wish I had; truly, this beautiful white hair I want on my head and more beautiful doors!

I hope something wonderful happened to you today. Thank you for stopping by; I know your time is precious.

All iPhone shots today; I did shoot all the doors on film as well. Looking forward to developing them and seeing what I have.
