My wife and I were walking the Taos Plaza this afternoon when we stopped in Sage Fine Art on the southeast corner of the plaza. Inside, artist Alan Heuer was working on one of his latest paintings. Alan was kind enough to let me look over his shoulder as he worked and we talked about his art. If you would like to see more of his work, I suggest you visit Sage Fine Art and Alan’s website and blog.

Guy on the edge, Grand Canyon National Park.

I was shooting from Yavapai Point a couple of nights ago when this guy climbs over the railing and steps down onto an incredibly tiny outcropping of rock. Crazy! His name is Vofka and he is from the Ukraine. Really great guy and has tons of confidence. He is also incredibly patient. I asked to wait while I got a shot of him on the ledge and he was kind enough to oblige.

Vofka, it was great meeting you. I hope you enjoy the photograph.
