Urey is Back!

We are quite pleased to have Urey Lemen, one of our founding members, back with us after a short hiatus from the gallery. Visitors to the Albuquerque Photographers' Gallery have been enjoying his top-notch photographs for many years. His award-winning work captures the scenic beauty of the New Mexico landscape and reminds us why our state is called the "Land of Enchantment". To view more of his work visit his homepage.

Welcome back, Urey!

Slot Canyon Beauty

The slot canyons of Arizona and Uath are one of my favorite subjects to photograph. This one was taken in lower Antelope Canyon outside of Page, Az. The light levels tend to be very low so exposure times are long and a tripod is a must. My first effort of taking images in slot canyons was done on film. At least for me, it was always a matter of holding my breath until the film got back to see if my exposures where right. I now do mostly digital photography so you know what you got right away.
