The problem is that when I’ve got non-photographers with me, I am extremely aware of the fact their interest level and mine are not even close to the same. In this case, there were three people sitting in a car while I explored the church.
And, so, even though the light would have been completely different in here in another half hour*, I ended up shooting-and-dashing, in the interest of family dynamics. Please do not mention this to my photography teachers who advocate the “compose and wait” method…

I’ve been making a lot of images lately, but they’re not ones that are bloggable just yet…as a result, I’ve been digging deep into the archives to see what might have been hiding there for, say, eight and half years.
And so that’s how I found this – a little yucca fighting an already-lost battle against the encroaching sand.
