July has to be one of the most beautiful times of the year here in Taos. We get afternoon monsoon storms coming up from the Gulf of Mexico that bring with them some of the most amazing storm clouds that create skies of pure art. The spider trails of lightning, followed by the crack & roar of the thunder make for some of the most spectacular sunset photography. I love every minute of it here.

Some of the photography & art shows that I have been participating in the last few months are now winding down. For those that wanted to see some of the images, but couldn’t make it to the shows, I have included web links at the bottom of this newsletter. Thank you to the following people for my inclusion in a few of these shows: Abe Ordover, Greg Moon, Tim Anderson & Patrick Berrett, and Jeff & Kirsten Klagenberg.

For those of you on Facebook I hope you will check out and "Like" my page. Click on the icon below to be taken to the Steven Bundy Photography page. There are images that I post on Facebook that do not make it to my newsletter or web page including a couple recently of a spectacular lightning storm west of Taos.

 

I have driven by this old wreck many times over the last few years....the painted windshield "For Sale" still hanging in there, but I never really saw an image in my mind until last weekend. The storm clouds in the background finally added the impact that I had been looking for.

Full and half day photo tours are available in and around northern New Mexico. Each of the full day tours will start at approximately 9:00 am and run past sunset (weather permitting) and will begin and end at my studio in Taos (We can meet in Santa Fe, if needed).

Half day tours can begin either in the morning or in the afternoon, depending upon your preferences. There are no specific photographic abilities required for these tours other than a general knowledge of your camera. Of course, if needed, I will help you to better understand your specific camera (please bring your manual). My intention with the tours is to show you the unique beauty of Northern New Mexico and to have you return home with wonderful images and memories that you’ve created. If you are coming to Taos or Santa Fe in the near future and would like to have a fun, creative experience please call and lets plan a tour geared to your specific interests. I’m happy to plan a tour for one person or for a group of up to 4. Contact me with any of the contact information methods (at end of newsletter) to schedule a tour during your next vacation to New Mexico.
