Revisiting the Past at the Tumacacori Mission in Southeast Arizona
Image by Sam Antonio Photography
For the first time in a long time I spent the weekend in front of my computer instead of shooting out in the field. I was doing preventive maintenance by going through my photos and backing them up on various hard drives. In the process of doing so I went through my old photos from past trips that brought back memories.
In 2004 I took road trip through Southeast Arizona that gave me a flavor of a mix of the Old West, Old Mexico, amazing architecture, church history, and a reminder of the Cold War.
I shot this photo of the Tumacacori Mission with my first digital camera the Canon PowerShot S100 that had a whooping 2 megapixels, a far cry from my current Canon 5D MKII camera that shoots 21 megapixels!
I loved shooting with the PowerShot S100 and it served me well on many photo adventures. It was with me when I ran for my life when I did the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain (talk about a slow shutter lag)!
In the end, my photographic endeavors and creativity led me to outgrow that little camera and eventually lead me to getting my first digital SLR, a Canon Digital Rebel.
So many memories and so many hard drives to back them up on!
So what was your first digital camera? I would love hear from you in the comment section.
Happy Travels!

I shot this because I am starting on a series of photographs of people who serve us everyday and risk their lives for our safety and security. Without these people, this country, and most others, would be in total chaos. Jeff is one of so many people who leave home everyday without his wife and daughter to help serve others.
Over sometime, I have heard people discuss such great people and they wonder why they do what they do. Leaving a family behind and risk their lives. The comment that really got me started on this project was when a lady said, "Why would someone be so selfish to leave his family at home while he goes out to serve other families and people? Shouldn't people like that stay home and serve their own?"
