Elegy for a way of life that is fast disappearing.

I found this link sheds some light on why Las Cruces is called Las Cruces.

"Imagine if Ansel had a digital camera and PS." mutters Bill as he exits the museum... Joking of course. Some of us, including myself, spend a great amount of time trying to make digital images look like silver prints. Nice to see you out viewing some art.

what a great image .. loving all the elements in this .. just perfect in black and white ..
i particularly like the guy standing there .. his stance seemingly with attitude .. with the ppl on the wall behind him .. almost blending in .. :)

Comment by streetpigeon:
That does sound fascinating. As a keepsake of the visit this is quite beyond what a casual photographer would bring home. It's clean and well-composed, and encapsulates what you've experienced -- camera, images, albeit the smaller ones, and a life-size model of the artist. I like that the focus is on the camera, as it should be in this case.
