Founded in 1691 by Jesuit missionary and explorer Fr. Eusebio Kino the old adobe mission still stands. The Spanish architectural influence can readily be seen. It is located in Tumacacori, AZ in the Tumacacori National Historical Park. It is open daily to the public.

A long-time passion, I’ve held a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember. Capturing “the moment” is my goal, whether it be people, wildlife or a beautiful Arizona sunset. I am originally from NYC but now live in the desert southwest.
Thank you for viewing my images… I hope that you enjoy!

Barbara… ya’ NAILED it! The post treatment on this couldn’t be more perfect. If I were you, I’d get this printed, matted, framed and be sitting right out front there selling them to the tourists (okay, maybe right outside the entrance gate). You should, at least, see if they will make a purchase order through their gift shop.
Hi Clark, I’m getting sleepy but that just woke me right up with a smile. Thank you so much! You just made my night. Thank you so much! I might just do that!
