Description
A bright yellow prickly pear blossom and bud contrast with a nearby stand of purple sage at Union Grove Wildlife Management Area. This brought to mind the New Riders of the Purple Sage, one of my favorite groups of the 1970's, hence the title.

Gary Holmes, photographer: I am an opportunist photographer of nature, landscapes, abstract, and other found objects of interest. Although I have done single and group portraits, I prefer the challenge of trying to capture the unpredictable spontaneity of things and events as they are occurring. I started with a Kodak Brownie as a child, but entered the world of real photography with a Canon AE-1 in the late 1970's. I have continued to develop my compositional and post-processing skills and have slowly acquired higher quality equipment. I finally became confident enough to begin posting my work online in September 2012, and have successfully sold several of my photographs.
