it's official that I have found my spirit colors. (You know, like a spirit animal but maybe less intimidating…) I wasn't even fully aware that I was on the hunt for them so perhaps I should say that they found me since that seems more in line with a color's spirit. Regardless, we are now united and I couldn't be happier especially since I have the privilege of encountering these desert beauts every day now. Though the hugh changes throughout the day with the intensity of the sun, these colors woo me from first to last light. Wide open palettes proudly display an array of slightly muted blues, pinks, purples and gold. And the textures?! That's an entirely different pony. Here's a collection of some of my favorite desert film images taken in the last six months.
