4. it was wall to wall people when I arrived Sunday...

...but thankfully it calmed down by Monday AM. Bisbee challenged my usual techniques, because I'm more accustomed to set shots that I've carefully set up, and tested exposure, sharpness, etc to get the image I want. This was much more walking around town with a camera around my neck and grabbing quick shots here and there. Honestly, my reject rate was disappointingly high, but it's all a learning experience!

I joined a local camera club a couple years ago and they organize short photography trips-- this was one of their junkets. Most of the trips are not subjects I would have chosen otherwise, including Bisbee. I mainly went along because there are overwintering sandhill cranes at nearby Whitewater Draw Wildlife Area, but a hardware glitch left me with no usable images of the birds. D'Oh!

6. Any shots of the numerous stairways?

Sandhill Cranes near me. I love their sound.

5. Neat street scene mike_c! Cool you shot it with a scooter parked in its spot. Pretty seat cover.

Real nice angle, not straight-on. Glad you found this quiet alley, especially considering previous day's crowds.
