June 2015 Photo Competition: Made by Hand



  June 2015 Photo Competition: Made byHand
Welcome to our June 2015 Photo Competition!
This is our first competition on Artizan Made and we hope that it will become a regular event as it is fun and exciting to see how people interpret a theme.
Photo Rules:
Your photo must have at least one hand in it and it must show something handmade. The hand does not need to be a real one. It can be the handmade part of the challenge. You are allowed to photoshop your image and make it into art. In other words, you can manipulate the photo in any way you want, but the story that is being told is about a hand and a handmade object.
Submissions:
·         Anyone is welcome to participate. Each participant can submit up to three photos.
·         We retain the right to delete any photo that is poorly done or inappropriate for a family audience.
·         After submitting the photo, it will be held for approval and then posted on this page.
·         Image size: 1200 pixels square, saved as a jpeg at 72 dpi.
·         There is a text field for a one liner when you submit. You can add more text to the image on Facebook once we post it there and then the winners will get a full paragraph and link on the Winner’s Page.
·         Submissions will be added to this album on our Facebook page: ArtizanMade  
·         Deadline for submissions:  June 28th  11PM Central US time

Voting:
·         Anyone can vote by clicking on the heart on up to ten photos.
·         Help your favorites win by sharing their photos with your peeps.
·         Deadline for voting: June 28th  11PM Central US time
·         Winners: First, second and third places will be determined by the number of votes.

Georgia O'Keeffe

"Georgia O'Keeffe"

While visiting family in New Mexico last week, we had the chance to visit Ghost Ranch just outside of Abiquiu, New Mexico. It's located about an hours drive from Santa Fe. This place is where Georgia O'Keeffe spent a lot of time painting. 



The landscape is breathtaking and the beautiful clouds were very wispy that day.


There are several trails to hike and we hiked Chimney Rock Trail.  Box Canyon and Kitchen Mesa Trails  were either being worked on or there was a movie being filmed, but our only option was spectacular.


There were a few steep areas along the trail.


There have been a few visitors who did not head the warning signs regarding the trail and it cost them their lives. 



There are no gates to close the ranch, so people can come in and hike, but not recommended after dark.



You can definitely see why Georgia was drawn to this place.



Our next goal is to come out here and try the other two trails and try to catch a spectacular sunrise and sunset.
