Kokopelli II
by SenaKokopelli, the seed bringer and water-sprinkler(a reference to his male anatomy), is a common fertility symbol throughout the Southwest. His image is found in petroglyph art particularly in the fourcorners area and along the gorges of the San Juan River in Northern New Mexico and Colorado. He is a personage who is honored as a kachina by most Pueblo cultures. He is associated with fertility, the male principal and physiology, and the concept of the significance of protecting seeds. Usually depicted as old, bent under his heavy load, he visits various communities, impregnating the young women drawn to the tones of his flute playing. He is also related to the cricket, or locust, whose natural music is connected with specific humidity and seasonal temperatures. There are many, very ribald stories of his various exploits. When carved as a kachina doll, he usually has a staff, not a flute, but is also carved hunchbacked. Before the missionaries came to the Hopi mesas in the 1930’s, his kachina disguise and this doll also featured exaggerated male sexual organs although this practice has been curtailed in recent years. Today, he is considered the ambassador of the Southwest, a much less colorful job, by tourists and visitors.

A sunset shot of Fajada Butte, Chaco Canyon, Chaco Wilderness, New Mexico, USA. Chaco Canyon has been termed the “Stonehenge of the Americas” because the pueblos were built with an orientation to the heavens. On the side of Fajada Butte are three rock slabs that have been arranged to cast shadows and/or to permit rays of light to interact with a stone tablet positioned behind them. At solstice and equinox, the sun and/or moon interacts with the tablets to mark the day. The Chaco Canyon ruins have been painstakingly excavated and it is easy to see the grandeur that was Pueblo Bonito. With its many warrens of rooms and passageways and more than 30 great kivas, it is surmised that it was a welcome center and convention hall for the puebloans who descended on the area from a wide range of far-flung territories, their purpose being to celebrate the solstice or equinox at Fajada Butte. Pentax K110D ISO 200 1/180 @ F8 160mm.

This is a shot of a portion of an old wagon wheel and axle on display in the wagon yard at Fort Union National Monument at Watrous, New Mexico, just a couple of miles off Interstate-25 and 80 miles north of the City of Santa Fe. In bygone days, Fort Union was an important U.S. Military post on the Santa Fe Trail, which was a trade route started by indigenous people in the long-ago, and energized by the Spaniards in the 16th and 17th centuries. In the frontier days of American West lore, the trail was traveled by outlaws and desperados and settlers and tradesmen of all stripes.

This landscape panorama is composed of three shots stitched together in Photoshop CS3. These features are volcanic plugs located in the Rio Puerco Valley of New Mexico. The weather this day was overcast and windy, with very light snow flurries. Those conditions aren’t conducive to New Mexico landscape photography, so this was more a scouting expedition than anything else. Toward the end of the day, some light did break through in streaks and spots, and this view opened up just as we stopped to appreciate it. Pentax K110D, 1/125 @ F11, ISO 200, 144mm

Oil Painting 20 X 24 on stretched canvasof a Southwestern Pueblo Indian woman potter, polishing her hand crafted pottery pieces as she sets on the hearth of her fireplace. You would find her in the Arizona, New Mexico, So. Colorado and So. Utah area of the southwestern USA This was my first attempt at trying to paint a portrait, it was susposed to be Maria Martinez from San Ildefonso Pueblo in New Mexico but I couldn’t get her to look like Maria. Maybe I’ll try again some other time. Created in my Grants Pass, Oregon USA Studio Featured in: / Spirit of the Native American Group / Impressionist Art / First People of America Group

This one room schoolhouse is in the New Mexico ghost town of Riley. I’ve heard tell the town was abandoned in the 1950s, and that sounds about right, given that they were still using an outhouse right up until the school closed. For those younger than a “certain age,” that tin-roofed shed seen through the window is the outhouse. This school building, the outhouse, and the church are the only structures left in Riley that have four walls and a roof, so one could say that education, elimination, and salvation are still on offer here. All else is entropy. Pentax K20D, 1/125 @ F/10, EV Comp -.3, 18mm

The Skip Maisel building was constructed in the style of Pueblo Deco and was a landmark structure in its day, not only for its architectural grandness, but also because native americans were permitted to display their wares there in person, which was a rare event in the US in the first half of the twentieth century. Murals on the building were painted by Olive Rush and early native amaerican artists such as Ha-So-De and Harrison Begay. The Skip Maisel building is on old Route 66, AKA Albuquerque’s Central Avenue Pentax K20D 1/4 second @ F5.6, EV Comp -.3, ISO 200, 26mm

Albuquerque, New Mexico is home to the annual International Balloon Fiesta held every October. Part of the incredible magic of this event is being able to walk among the balloons as they are inflating, readying to take off. This photo, from a fiesta years ago, shows how close you are to the balloons and the sheer wonder of being right THERE. Until next year’s fiesta . . . (Photo originally taken in 1990, 35mm, scanned, and digitally developed)
