Gallery photographer, Dan Shaffer, has won 1st prize in the Albuquerque The Magazine’s Route 66 photo contest with his image “Following Ernst Haas.” This photo was taken on Route 66 at Central and Carlisle, facing east.
About his photo, Shaffer says “I had a copy of the Ernst Haas photo in my left hand to guide my composition, and my right-hand trigger finger was on my camera. I had the scene framed and was ready to shoot when I heard the sound of a roaring car coming towards me. I didn’t look up but kept clicking frames. Lucky for me it was the perfect car for the scene – a 1960 Chevrolet making a sharp left turn on to Route 66”.
Posters of Dan’s winning photo are available for purchase at the Tularosa Basin Gallery of Photography, 401 12th Street, Carrizozo, NM.

Cosetta Lewis Deming, NM
Millions of Miles Apart

Dragon Ridge, Comet Tsuchinshan, and the Milky Way aligned to paint Deming’s dark skies with magic — a once-in-a-lifetime show! Each night while the comet graced the heavens around the Deming area, I chased the stars from a new horizon, composing fresh perspectives beneath the vast silence. From City of Rocks, Dragon Ridge in the Florida Mountains, to my own backyard, this image became one of my favorites — a moment of stillness, just breathing in the quiet brilliance of the universe.

New Mexico Experience Honorable Mention
Jean Templeton La Luz, NM
The Hat

Once the gate flies open, and the bull and rider come charging out, it’s hard to know what to focus on as it's all happening so fast! Until I started looking through my photos, I didn’t realize that I’d captured the aftermath of the brave rider being thrown, and one of the rodeo clown's hats flying off, as they courageously faced the enraged bull; with the clown trying to calm him down, while helping the thrown rider get to safety. When I saw this photo, I realized just how dangerous a rodeo clown’s job really is! So, I dedicate this photo to rodeo clowns everywhere.

Warmth and Innocence

Warmth and Innocence” fits because Lanelle, my little muse, brings tenderness to every frame. Between shots, she kept reaching for the water, and I teased her that we still had work to do. Then, with her playful confidence, she said, "Don't worry I got a blanket!", and moments later she was already wrapped in it—glowing with pure childhood joy. I snapped fast and caught a moment I never could’ve planned, born entirely on her whim. She keeps me on my toes, reminding me that life doesn’t need a script; the best things appear when we let go and let innocence lead.

Landscape 2nd Place: Rob Lang
Autumn, Abiquiu Lake

It was the beginning of Fall in Abiquiu. The sun was still a little high, but clouds started coming in. The feeling of Abiquiu is captured in the light, movement and colors. I move with the landscape to create the painterly effect. Colors are natural. The time of day, seasons, and history of Abqiuiu came into play when I was photographing this landscape.
