Photo Notes A place to talk about making images.

Monastery Road

This group of images was made over several trips toward Christ in the Desert Monetary near Abiquiu in New Mexico. I usually don’t get all the way out to the Monastery. It’s 14 miles out a dirt road, and frankly the journey is often more interesting than the destination. I’ve taken most of the cameras I currently use out to this area including the Nikon D-850, Mamya Super 23 and the 5X7 Linhof Technika. It’s one of my favorite day trips! Thanks so much for your continued attention!

As you might imagine I’d prefer that these pages don’t get filled with a great deal of text. If you’d like information about a specific image, please e-mail me at john@siskinphoto.com and I’ll let you know what I know. Of course, if you have specific requests about an image you’d like to purchase please use the same address. If you’d like to go ahead and purchase an image, please use the Paypal link below and give me the browser link to the image and your shipping address.

I am also trying a couple of things that will give people an opportunity to support this work. While I am fortunate to have enough money to continue to do this work, some things are pretty expensive. For instance 11×14 film is hard to get and costs about $300 for just 25 shots and a 120 roll of Ilford Delta 400 is close to $9.

I did a large show when I was still in Indianapolis called Courting Chaos. The link will take you to the pages which describe the work and its evolution. These images are, well, chaotic and many of them are nudes. I hope you’ll find it interesting.
