Fine Art Photography
Fine Art, to many, can be a landscape which simply takes your breath, beckons for you to come, and seems to embody some of your soul. Such art can include highly dramatic sunsets; rainbows amplifying strong, gracious color contrasts; a cloud pattern which suggests perhaps God sends an invitation; or the stark other-worldly aspect of a primordial ‘Martian’ scene; etc.
Photography’s early path seems to start with simple shots in direct light. ‘Ere long, the fascinating challenge of light’s reflection and it manifold moods captures your camera’s eye. Soon, you want to play just at Magic Hour, that gorgeous time near sunrise or sunset which can capture the essence of our imaginative soul. Then you learn, the more capable your camera, the stronger your capture capacity.
Whatever your course into digital art, time may lead you to create that breathtaking image which wins awards, which draws gasps, which is elegantly requested ~ and, which fills your soul with such deep joy! For me, worshiping at these eternal altars of beauty is like always returning to my church, my cathedral…
Add natural history to these pleasures, include ancient Anasazi culture and its elegant architecture ~ now you engage both head and heart. History, culture, architecture, beauty ~ Let’s look around the Four Corners Region, southwestern United States, and truly take in its dramatically elegant art and beauty. Anyone who has seen such beauty would empty their pockets to simply see it once again…
In this spirit, we present Fine Art Landscapes… from National Parks to little known, isolated ruins of a once mighty Anasazi civilization, and finally, to a surprising facsimile of Mars.
Ultimately, both award-winning images and our favorites from People’s Choice and Awards appear in our Fine Art Library. These images are products of time-tested field capture and Photoshop workflow in our digital darkroom, then public acclaim. Finally, our award-winning images have undergone competitive review in a professional environment.
Wouldn’t you like to learn our professional workflow secrets? They can help your photographic career reach national, and, perhaps, even international heights!

Anasazi Pleasure
High on a lonely cliff, far from today’s civilization, this small cave seems hidden from destiny or change. Yet, habitation began over a thousand years ago. Ancient Anasazi built this small ruin on the northern limit of Mesa Verde culture.
Your eye seems to escape the cave’s confines, sneak past a solitary tower in the distance, and finally, land on a small white marker at the top of a distant cliff bordering the Green River.
The sense of uniqueness, the beauty of the landscape, even the trial of getting there ~ all conspire to make one feel the Anasazi consider this a holy place.
The image is a set of handheld panoramic captures. I first tried the merge in CS2; no luck. After watching them successfully merge in a friend's CS3, getting it on the desktop, that has made all the difference.
You are looking across Canyonlands National Park, southeastern Utah.
Anasazi Pleasure acquired an Honorable Mention in a Juried Competition at New Mexico State Fair, 2007.
