The forest is not merely an expression or representation of sacredness, nor a place to invoke the sacred; the forest is sacredness itself.

Peeling back the layers: Chaco

#BlueSkyArtShow #EastCoastKin #blackandwhite #classicmono #NewMexico #historic #nativeamerican #sacredplaces #chaco
Ruined walls of adobe brick rise into a mostly clear dark sky. Tiers of receding walls stretch into the distance from left to right. A single white cloud floats at far right.

One wall after another: Chaco

#Stunday #ECK #blackandwhite #classicmono #ruin #sacredplaces #Chaco #NewMexico #nativeamerican #ancestralpuebloan
A stone wall, partially collapsed, runs diagonally through the frame. A perpendicular wall adjoins it at far left. In the middle distance, center left, we see another stone wall remnant. The sky is streaked with thin clouds and traces of contrails.

Thailand
Some places feel like they’re between worlds.
This temple above Ao Manao isn’t just about beauty—it’s a living space of ritual, reflection, and rhythm.
And the air? Filled with incense, sea breeze, and the occasional monkey.

#rockintuesday #eck #ancestralpuebloan #archaeology #ruin #blackandwhite #classicmono #landscapephotography #nativeamerican #sacredplaces
A ruin built of stone blocks sits atop a boulder whose front surface has been cracked, with debris strewn below. The ruin itself is streaked with white bird droppings. Above and behind we can see stone walls looming overhead, partially in shadow.

A disk-shaped rock formation has been used by ancient builders as the locus for a ruined watchtower above, and possibly a granary below in the shade of the overhanging rock. Conifers and scrub brush dot the rocky terrain, while the blue sky above shares the frame with a puffy white cloud.

Intimate, closeup view of stacked structural stones showing the wide variety of sizes and shapes that have been made to fit together seamlessly. The angle of the view emphasizes the towering perspective, leading the eye upward into a dark sky with wisps of cloud. Canon 5D, 1/80 sec. @ f/14

View through a low window in a crumbling Native American ruin off the beaten path. Above the window is a blue sky streaked with clouds and one prominent contrail. A bush or small tree can be seen peeking out from under the arch-like sandstone roof overhead.

The fast track attempt to overturn the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument management plan failed today! This means the plan stays in place and will continue to protect Tribal Nations' cultural resources and sacred places for generations to come. #SacredPlaces deserve lasting protection.

A section of wall built from intricately interlaced stones. Through a narrow window we see another section of wall. A ragged cloud appears at top left of the image. The picture is rendered in detailed, high-contrast black and white.
