A little late to the party..... I posted a few favorite 'beautiful' B/W images recently, so today I have a different type of 'favorite'. This one is a piece of history, the grave marker of Jose Maria Polancio. There is an online page concerning this marker, and I'll admit that reaching this piece of history does require a few hundred yards of trespassing, though the land in question is untouched by man, other than a bit of barbed wire fencing. The page link follows, and I'm slightly reticent to post the link, as I believe it too nearly shows the exact location of the marker. Still, the image on the page claiming to show a wide angle of the marker's location....doesn't. LOL. The author is proud to remember the general location from 40 plus years ago, but fails to remember its actual location over just a few weeks or months. The link provides some detail about Polancio, but the kicker is he was part Mescalero and his tribe were the ones who killed him, for being a guide to the white man and his army. Not only that, but, according to army writings, it seems Polancio was buried by two different army groups, the first after finding his corpse, and the second after finding his unearthed, desecrated corpse, scalped and pumped full of arrows.

The image here was a conversion of one many I took at the site. All but this one were of the marker and its surroundings, without the photographer. However, a good friend who grew up in the area had never seen the marker, and his knees were not up to hiking any distance at all. So, per request, I took the pseudo-selfie to give a sense of scale for my friend.

Sorry. I was thinking too literally.
I wasn't thinking about that one. I'm not even sure if it runs. I can't remember the last time I've seen it anywhere but in that spot.

I absolutely love B&W's, and subscribe to Ansel Adams' rule of full range images from white to black. I even started painting in B&W. I found a few pics that I like.
Great set. I really like the iris, and the tractor with its dusty contrail
