Big Bend

Dawn on another day in Big Bend

Few places on this earth hold the fascination for me that the Big Bend area of Texas does. From Big Bend National Park and it's neighbor, Big Bend Ranch State Park, to the high points of the Davis Mountains and the Guadalupe Mountains, the big bend in the Rio Grande encompasses an area of Texas that is surrealistically vast, awe-inspiring, and simultaneously an artists' dream and worst nightmare. No two dimensional work can  hope to convey the grandeur of the Big Bend, but we, for some reason, keep on trying in the hope of capturing a bit of the essence of the place.

I shall keep on trying.
