Voices

The "normal" state of mind typically means that a person does not hear voices.  But in any town, in any state or country, there are places that speak of the past more than the present.

Fellow photographer Steve Immel and I meandered through some of the smaller towns and villages of northern New Mexico and southern Colorado on Friday.  The town of San Luis, Colorado is filled to the brim with stories, memories, and voices.  That is where the photographer and the human imagination go to work.

Below is the window of a once vital store, which served one of the world's most famous soft drinks.  My guess is that the reflection is a historic building with additions of solar architectural vernacular from the 1970s.

This setting screams mid-20th century American dining.  All the items were on sale at an indoor garage sale on the main street in San Luis.

An example of a photograph speaking volumes.

Sometimes, photographs shout.  Other times they speak softly.
