Description
What we might call a dinghy or skiff, these fishing boats are known as Pangas in San Felipe.Two or three men head out on the Sea of Cortez in the morning, lay thier nets, then return to haul in the days catch. They will sell to the reastaurants, markets, or to you and me from the back of thier pick-up trucks on the Malecon.

I got my first camera, a Kodak Brownie, when I was six or seven years old, and I've been hooked on the art of photography ever since. A year or so later, I got my first processing and print making kit and I began to realize that I could be as creative, if not more so, in the darkroom than in the field. Over the years, my cameras and darkroom got more complex, giving me more creative tools to work with. About 10 years ago, I traded film, chemicals, tanks, trays, and the smell, for a digital camera and a copy of Photoshop. I never looked back.
