Welcome to Moriarty, New Mexico — professional photography photo story
Another Moriarty
While out on a rural land real estate shoot for Hemingway Land, the client wanted me to get some photos of the local color, as he put it. These photos represent that. Even if you live in Albuquerque, you may not have ever been to nearby Moriarty, NM. The town’s nickname is the Crossroads of Opportunity. Many small New Mexico towns have such monikers attached to their welcome signs. I find them interesting. So this small town may not be the first thing you think of when someone says Moriarty. Most likely you think Sherlock Holmes’ nemesis, but now you can bring up knowledge of a second Moriarty in conversation!
This was also my very first shoot with my brand new Sony 12-24mm f/2.8 G Master lens. It is by far the most expensive lens I ever bought, but after this shoot I can see how it is worth every penny. It is really a next generation ultra-wide lens for Sony mirrorless cameras.
