This is a well-seen and crafted set of photographs of this mission, one of my favorites. I’m the son of Philip Hyde, student and teaching associate of Ansel Adams and Edward Weston. Dad was one of the first photographers sent on an assignment for an environmental cause and helped create many of the national parks and wilderness of the Western US. However, he was certainly not only about landscapes. My father photographed a lot of architecture and historical buildings and he loved to photograph the missions. I remember as a kid visiting those in California and Baja. So, I’ve seen a lot of mission photographs, but yours are superb. I also like the format of your blog. Great work you’re doing.
