Borrego Springs Sculptures

Sculptures at night in Borrego Springs put a new perspective on the creatures.
Skip Fredricks hosted a night photography class in Borrego Springs.
I have worked with Skip Fredricks during a few of his classes and was my ultimate experience.
It was phenomenal! Students learned camera settings, still photos, and light painting with drones.

InterDrone Interview
I was contacted by Kara Murphy to do a brief interview regarding my thought on InterDrone.
I have attended InterDrone for many years. It was the first major Drone conference I attended. I met some amazing people, and I am still in contact with some of them.
Thank you Kara for allowing me to share my thoughts about the InterDrone conferences. This years conference will be held in Dallas, Texas this August.
Desert Queen Mine

This hopper is from the Desert Queen Mine in Vicksburg, AZ.
As part of our “preserving history”, we made a quick trip with the off road vehicles to check out this mine. There are three mining settlements in this area. The Desert Queen Mine is one of them. Vicksburg is a (very) small town off Highway 72 in Arizona near the town of Salome. This town was named after Victor E. Satterdahl. He set up the post office for Vicksburg in 1906. Wells Fargo had a train stop in Vicksburg in 1907. The Desert Queen was a LODE mine.
We love that the mine is still open. Use extreme caution if you are in this area. There is a hole on the left as you enter the area and a covered hole in front of the adit itself.
Please tread lightly and do not destroy the history here.
