Flight Deck

Rio Grande view

A landscape to provoke the urge to fly

It’s like dropping out of hyperspace onto an unknown planet. This spot is six miles and a thirty minute hike from where we live. The image above, a familiar view but never from this spot before, is actually a video still, which explains the aspect ratio (16:9). I call it “Flight Deck” because not only could you land here, but if you were in this space, if you occupied it with your soul so that right here was your cockpit, you could fly to almost anywhere.
