High and Dry Show at UTEP’s Centennial Museum, El Paso, TX: February 11 to April 17, 2010

The High and Dry Show is in it’s tenth year, sponsored by the International Center for Arid and Semiarid Land Studies at Texas Tech University in Lubbock. The show was held from November 29, 2009 to January 15, 2010 at Texas Tech. Following that photo exhibit, a special selection was made for display at the Centennial Museum at University of Texas at El Paso. The Centennial Museum specializes in the natural and cultural history of the Southwest.

Two large downstairs galleries housed the High and Dry Exhibit featuring photographs of the people and lands of the arid Southwest. Included were two of my photos of cloud formations in the landscape near Van Horn, Texas. During my travels between Austin and El Paso, this area is often rich in sky and landscape images.

My two cloudscape photos from Van Horn were among those in the High and Dry exhibit.
