Notes from the Field
I've got a six-page "short take" article in the latest issue of Railroad History (no. 229). The subject is some of the remaining semaphore signals on the Santa Fe Railway in New Mexico; it's a follow-up to my much longer 2019 article in the same publication (no. 221).
Most of the aging semaphore signals of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway have come down in recent years, replaced by modern devices. But eleven of the 100-year old sentinels soldier on with no replacement signals positioned adjacently. My article provides the location of all, images of several, along with the appearance of Amtrak's Southwest Chief, which is the only train on the line currently tripping these ancient implements.
Three images by Richard Koenig; all taken April 2023.

From a day at Grindstone Lake in Ruidoso, NM. Trying to capture that very tricky transition from shallow transparent water to deep turquoise water. Not sure I totally nailed it but it was fun to try.

#MadridNewMexico - Along the #TurquoiseTrail between #SantaFe and #Albuquerque. Old forlorn boarded up historic houses and structures are 'a thing' in the #LandOfEnchantment and it's what gives the one-of-kind state its total charm. The heritage and pop culture of the vintage #AmericanSouthwest is quickly being retired by the likes of post-modern greed, social media nonsense, and the bullshit land developers that keep grabbing every piece of land they can and morphing it into cookie cut HOAs. The American Dream was an illusion to line the pockets of cheap western profiteers. That's what this whole monstrosity of a system was designed to do. The United States is still the same colonial-imperial feudal system that old Europe was, folks! Don't let the politicians and their land grabbing convince you otherwise...

Starting a Painting: Painting the Simple Shapes
Once the decision has been made on how to simplify the composition into a small number of shapes, the next step is to apply paint to the canvas that represents them. In this video, watch how this can easily accomplished using a painting knife.
Creating artwork is one way to become more aware of our visual perception and open our experience to see the beauty in the ordinary.

I picked this up on my trip back home to New Mexico. It's much heavier than it looks. I love the marbling in the stone and it looks great on my desk.

Get Your Kicks
A westbound Amtrak Southwest Chief steaks along west of Albuquerque. This is where historical Route 66 crosses over the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway. This segment of the ATSF was of the Atlantic & Pacific Charter, between Isleta (south of Albuquerque) and Needles, California, on the Colorado River. This charter granted the railroad direct access to California near the end of the 19th century. One image taken on May 13th 2019.
