Monochrome Monday; Tumacacori National Historical Park, Arizona

Mission San Jose de Tumacacori. (click to enlarge)

About 50 miles south of Tucson, Arizona, along I-19, lies the Tumacacori National Historical Park.  It is an old Spanish Jesuit Mission that dates back to 1691.  It is a fascinating group of buildings with on-site burial grounds that makes it not only for its interesting history, but also it is rich in photographic possibilities.  I recommend you visit if you are anywhere near that area.  

Color works as well as black & white so if color is important to you, by all means photograph the mission buildings and grounds in color.

    1. Thank you Paul. It is an “Ansel Adams” kind of place where black & white, to me, fits better than color. Well, worth spending a morning photographing there. I’ll have to post some additional images from my visits. ~Dennis
