author, writer, reader, book coach, book designer, book producer, photographer... 5th gen northern californian, new york city, new mexico, and now living back in san francisco, ca... photos on this blog are mine unless otherwise noted... involved with Bay Area publishing community... interested in profit, people, planet - a sustainable world -- and energy of all kinds - fuel, human, spiritual... love cities, the new mexican desert, blues, watching men work, mysteries, b/w photos, bridges, driving my car, public transpo, the F train, and faces emerging from shadow.
thank you both. i have always wondered what appealed to me about this photo -- since i usually like my b/w ones better. this "painterly" quality may be what I "see" and just hadn't put words around it.
this has to be one the most evocative photos of new mexico i have yet seen! beautiful! reminds me that my favorite time in northern NM is winter, after the holidays, when the only sound is the crunching of the snow and the calling of the crows. lovely!
oh, phSFca, you are starting to make me homesick. i can almost smell burning pinon wood... i may have grown up here in denver, but my heart still belongs to new mexico.
while i belong right now where i am, in san francisco, at this time of year when the air chills and darkness creeps, i want fireplaces and snow. i want to be one of the people wrapped in warm coats and boots with a hat over my ears and red gloves on my hands -- at these times i miss it too -- and new york city. i do miss the change of seasons.
