Quiet Walk Photography        by Carol Carnicom            Copyright 2012   Carol Carnicom has been an avid photographer since childhood, having been  given a brownie camera to take photos of new friends at camp. Her first single lens reflex camera and a road trip from Fairbanks, Alaska to Missoula,  Montana started her on the road to scenic photography, following in the  footsteps of her mother, who also loves to photograph the beauty of nature. Attending the Rocky Mountain School of Photography Summer Intensive  in  1995 added  to her knowledge of the art of photography.   Further education  at the Santa Fe Community College widened the scope of her knowledge.   Carol remarks, "While the photo classes were helpful and inspiring, the truth  of photography for me is the passion to take in deeply the beauty of the  moment where ever I happen to be.  For me, that is most often nature,  although I love taking photos of my kids, also."   Carol's outdoor photography features scenic and nature photos from New  Mexico, the Land of Enchantment, and other beautiful locations in western  United States including White Sands National Monument, Bosque del Apache  National Wildlife Refuge, Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks, Three Rivers National Petroglyph Site, the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon,  Antelope Canyon, Glacier National Park, and Yellowstone  National Park.   Not overlooking familiar and local settings,  close-up shots of wildflowers, butterflies, and hummingbirds  highlight these backyard and roadside beauties. Other photographic venues include photos taken in Santa Fe  and Albuquerque, New Mexico. Carol teaches a week long summer Nature Photography Camp  at Waldorf  School where she is a music teacher during the school year.  Carol grew up and spent most of her adult years in Montana, but has lived in  Santa Fe since 1998 with her husband, Clifford, a photo enthusiast himself.  "We have a blast finding these great places to visit and  photograph, since it is an interest we have in common." Quiet Walk Photography photos have been published in the “New Mexico Magazine” and have been featured in  several photography shows in Santa Fe, NM.  Photo  greeting cards are sold at the Three Rivers Trading Post and the Bosque del Apache gift shop, as well as to individuals upon request.
