Cerrillos is a small town on the Turquoise Trail, the backroad connecting Santa Fe and Albuquerque. Technically a ghost town because it's a shadow of its heyday, but it is populated and working for tourist dollars as much as it can. This was at the edge of town at the turnoff from the main road.

Truchas is a charming town on the High Road between Santa Fe and Taos. This small cemetery along the road outside of the town appealed to me because of the setting. Wide open space, mountains in the background, fields of flowers...so different from a cramped New York cemetery.

I remembered to step away to keep my shadow out of the picture, totally forgetting that the tripod was creating a shadow as well. But I like the effect...like a ghost snapped this one.

I thought Taos was pretty boring. In infrared it actually appeared interesting.

Before heading to New Mexico, I noted that I saw VERY few good photos of Bandelier online. I wasn't sure why, but it turned out that if I couldn't get good photos out of professionals, I shouldn't expect too much either. I can't put my finger on it...maybe it's the lighting...but I found Bandelier difficult to shoot well. Infrared saved the day. Suddenly, good shots were much easier to get.
