Arte de Mexico

I discovered this place over 20 years ago. At the time the area was pretty sketchy, there was no walk way on Chandler, there were now pretty murals.

They own two large buildings right across the street from one another. This one is a great example of industrial Art Deco. The curved glass window. The wooden shutters. Btw, that glass is back.

I only took a few pictures inside, this place is heaven for those who love over the top dramatic furnishings, and lights.

I tried to concentrate on the simpler items. I really love this, it is something I’d even buy. For now, I just took a picture.

There are all kind of horses here, big, little. Unfortunately, this is the only picture of a horse that came out any good.

Here is something I love about this new camera – this could pass for a Still Life piece of art. Complete with fake flower.

In all the years that I have been aware of this place, I have yet to buy anything here, one of these days, that will change.

I have been watching a lot of You Tube videos about my camera and about how to use the Macro lens. One suggestion is to go to a Botanic garden and take pictures of flowers. One of the blessings of SoCal is that all I have to do is walk around my neighborhood. Pretty good shot of this Brugmansia, otherwise known as Devil’s Trumpet.

What a beauty.

A yellow one, slightly different variety. What I love so much about this is first of all, the little curlicues on the ends of the flower. Second, Joel held it upright for me and unbeknownst to both of us – I caught a bee in action! I guess he felt that Joel was there to help him as well.

A wonderful close up, why I know I’ll have a lot of fun with this macro lens.

Just for fun, a little orange.
