Real de Catorce is one of Mexico's magical villages, high in the mountains in the state of San Luis Potosi. Most of this video was shot from a balcony overlooking the tiny zocalo (village square) in the course of one day.

The changing light and weather on the meadow and forest where I live.

On Christmas Eve various barrios in Oaxaca participate in sending their village bands to accompany the villagers and kids on floats. When they all arrive in the "zocalo", the town square and circle it, there is a joyous cacophony...

I spent two months on my place on Whidbey Island....a lovely place....I shot some video of the things my eyes were drawn to...q

There is a ritual to watching the sun go down on the ranch. I like to sit on the patio with a glass of wine and watch the play of light on the hills and cactus garden. The cat, dogs, donkey, sooner or later show up and do their thing.

The Charros in their full regalia and their prancing horses are always interesting to watch at parades or rodeos......unfortunately the awkward and unnatural gail comes at a high price for the horse during training....

The EMP in Seattle, designed by Frank Gehry is a constant delight to photograph or video in the changing light.

Each year, the saturday before Easter, there is a procession in downtown Los Angeles where animals are blessed by the church.

There is a ritual on the ranch: pretty much every morning Dusty (donkey), Beau (bloodhouns) and Buddy line up outside the living room doors waiting for their breakfast biscuit.

Using the Photo to Movie application, a series of pan, zoom and scan moves of figurative images create an abstract composition.

Sometimes eyes are open, sometimes they are shut; sometimes it means something

A celebration of ninety years of memories.

Real de Catorce is a small village high in the mountains three hours from San Luis Potosi or Zacatecas...is has a rich history, a sacred mountain for the Huichol indians, a silver rich colonial town ultimately abandoned, which is now being reborn.

The Passion Play as performed by the villagers of Real de Catorce on Good Friday.

A lot of people think that eggs are made in China or in a big assembly plant in Arkansas.....not true: they come from chickens!

Buddy and Beau have treed a squirrel....now what? Patience, focus and perseverance....Dusty, Pretty and Red are not, as usual, amused....

The transformations of discarded doll's heads that have some serious playtime on them....

I shot this mini 'documentary' with one camera in one three hour period a few years ago with the intention of playing/learning digital editing. It's bumpy in lots of places but if you like cowboys, horses, Cajun music, blues and fellowship and lots of animals you might check it out.....these are my friends where I live (most of the time) in Agua Dulce, California.

[with the exception of the opening music cue which is a 'needle drop' all other music is 'source' music coming out of the boombox at Darryl's place...made for some challenging editing]

Beau (bloodhound) has to fend off Dusty (donkey) and Pretty (horse) while stealing carrots from them both.
