Ghost town Cerrillos is actually still going strong as a little collection of shops and simple residences. The random oil cans leading toward town from the main Turquoise Trail made for a better photo op.

Traditional homes | Taos Pueblo, New Mexico

Olympus OM-2n | Kodak Tri-X 400
While the morning is a better experience because of the smaller crowds, I feel that afternoon light might provide a better chance of shooting the mountains in the background of beautiful Taos Pueblo. B/w turned out OK compared to color but still not much definition there.

Cemetery | Taos Pueblo, New Mexico

Cemetery near the ruins of the old San Geronimo church. Taos Pueblo is an oft-photographed beautifully-preserved historical Indian village. A very popular destination, I found people waiting anxiously with me at 8AM on a Monday while the pueblo opened late, and by 10AM was surrounded by tourists.

Real Indian stuff | Taos Pueblo, New Mexico
