Each year hundreds of photographers submit thousands of photographs to the Annual New Mexico Photographic Art Show (ANMPAS) which showcases the finest photographic work being done in New Mexico. A jury of professionals selects only the best photography from Santa Fe, Taos, Albuquerque, and elsewhere in New Mexico for inclusion in the annual show.

I read that somewhere and saved it for an occasion like this. I probably would not have been so extravagantly boastful. I’ve known about ANMPAS for about 8 years now, since I began to show my work but have managed to submit entries only half those years. Traveling in the RV during the winter I either forgot or didn’t have the right images with me.  When I did submit I usually got at least one entry juried into the show. This year I was determined to not let the deadline slip by and got a couple of images accepted:

YELLOWSTONE MAGIC     The hot springs and pools at Yellowstone National Park provide           endless variations of color and abstraction.

BUNKER HILL                                 Not Boston’s, LA’s!

Here are images accepted in previous ANMPAS shows , 2011-2013.

Great Sand Dunes NP

The ruins of the original church of San Geronimo are reminders of that brutal deed.

Near Garfield, NM, the springtime flood irrigation of the groves promises pecans.

The show runs from April 1 through April 23 and the Fine Art Gallery at EXPO New Mexico will be open  from 10 am to 5 pm. Opening reception is Sat., March 31st from 2-4 pm.
