2010 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 03:42:29 GMT

Yet again, I managed to make it up to the race but didn't ride. I blame this on work and taking 3-week long photo trips during the prime of training season.

All Souls Procession

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 13:57:35 GMT

Started in 1990 as a way for a local artist to pay tribute to her recently passed father, the All Souls Procession has grown into a two-mile human-powered procession involving more than 20,000 participants. It is a mixture of old European and Latin traditions, in form most closely resembling the processions of Mexico’s Dia de los Muertos. The procession allows participants to pay homage to deceased loved ones, friends, ancestors, pets, and others.

Taos Ski Valley Pond Skimming

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Tue, 26 May 2009 01:20:43 GMT

At the close of every season, the Taos Ski Valley holds its annual Pond Skimming contest. What’s Pond Skimming? In this case, a 100 foot-long pool is constructed at the bottom of the ski slope, and competitors attempt to ski across the pond reaching the other side. If you’re in Taos on the closing day of ski season, then it’s a must to watch.

Photos From Across a Windy New Mexico

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Tue, 26 May 2009 00:11:49 GMT

The photos in this gallery were taken during a week-long trip through New Mexico and parts of Western Texas that started in Mule Creek on the Arizona border, and wound through Soccoro, Columbus, Taos, Las Vegas, Santa Rosa, and finally Carlsbad.

Carlsbad Caverns - 2009

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Tue, 26 May 2009 00:00:16 GMT

Carlsbad Caverns is one of my favorite caves, in that the park staff gives photographers close-to-full reign of the place as long as you stay on the path. Other caves have rules that are far more restrictive, limiting the equipment one can bring into the cave or banning photography all together. While the reasons for the restrictions are typically to protect the cave and prevent other visitors from tripping over equipment in the dark conditions, it limits the opportunities for responsible photographers.

Night Rocket Launch

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Sun, 29 Mar 2009 20:11:49 GMT

Last night found me once again out in the middle of nowhere on a Saturday night. No wonder my friends think of me as a socialite. This time, I was out on a trip of curiosity, to see, and possible photograph, my first night rocket launch. The Southern Arizona Rocketry Association here in Tucson was having their two-day “Desert Heat” rocketry extravaganza, including a night launch. Since I’m a fan of both explosives and neat photo opportunities, I made the drive out to Avra Valley to watch the event.

2009 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 05:42:46 GMT

Welcome once again to 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo, the largest mountain bike race in North America. I'm back again this year, and while I didn't race I did spend two days taking photos and testing out the new camera. Still working on the e-commerce portion of the site, so if there's something you'd like send me an e-mail (robert@robertdunnimages.com) and I'll make you an offer.

A Short Drive in the Country

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 17:14:57 GMT

Perhaps I could have chosen a better title, given that this latest journey lasted three weeks, crossed seven states, and added another 5700 miles to the truck's odometer. All totaled 2035 photos, the best 49 are here for your viewing, a series of images chronicling a journey into what would become one of the greatest winter storms the west has seen in some time.

San Xavier Del Bac Mission

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Sun, 11 Jan 2009 03:42:54 GMT

The White Dove of the Desert, San Xavier Del Bac, has been here long before there was a United States - Father Eusebio Francisco Kino first visited the site in 1692. In 1700, the foundation of the first church was laid nearby. The present church was built from 1783-1797, and is acclaimed as one of the best examples of mission architecture in the United States.

For the last few years an effort has been ongoing to restore the exterior of the church, which has suffered from the desert environment. Only recently did the scaffolding come off the west tower.

Four Corners 2008

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 13:55:37 GMT

"Sometimes I find these places, other times they find me." That was what I told someone recently who asked how I found the places I captured in my photographs. This week-long trip was no exception. Many of the places I had intentions of visiting long before the trip started, other places I had been to before and wanted to revisit, yet there were other places I found simply be accident - traveler's luck if you will.

Lake Powell Country

Lake Powell Country is a collection of photographs taken in August of2008 in a wandering trip through parts of northern Arizona and southernUtah near Lake Powell.

GLOW

GLOW is "nighttime art experience" held during the full moon in September at Triangle L Range just north of Oracle. You walk along the desert trails where artists have placed all sorts of lighted artwork. Everyone is invited to wear something that glows.

Last Days of the Tucson Sidewinders

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 18:08:00 GMT

The Tucson Sidewinders will be moving off to Reno in 2009, so while they were still around I took a few photos at the last couple of Sunday night games, including a rain out on the second-to-last game of the season.

Washington DC

A few photos from my trips to the nation's capital.

Clouds

robert@robertdunnimages.com (Robert Dunn Images) — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 19:09:00 GMT

A life growing up among the flat gray skies of the Pacific Northwest gave an appreciation for the more uneven skies of the Southwest, especially during monsoon season.
