Warehouse 21 Artwork

I took this picture while walking around the Santa Fe Railyard area. This mural is on the side of Warehouse 21. I really like the optical illusion feel it has to it.

Kachina

I had a very long and busy day at work today and I didn't much feel like going anywhere to take pictures. So when I got home I started looking for things around the house that I could photograph. I found this Kachina and took it outside in the late afternoon sun. I like the way it turned out.

Old Wooden Cross

I took a drive today and stopped in an old cemetery. I walked around and read tombstones. But this one caught my eye. No writing, no marble, no fancy carvings - just an Old Wooden Cross. I have noticed while exploring different cemeteries that there are a lot of symbols on or near graves - I have always wondered what these cemetery symbols stand for.

National Cemetery

After voting today I had to run errands in town. I was passing the National Cemetery and I decided to stop. The way the markers are precisely lined up always makes a good picture. As I was taking pictures I wondered what all of these people who have served their country would feel about today's election.

Indian Paintbrush

I did a little walking on the property this afternoon and was a little worried that I might not have a picture for today. Then I went around a few junipers and I saw this little spot of color. I was surprised to find this lone Indian Paintbrush in full bloom.

A Little Fall Color at Cerrillos Hills

I took a hike today at Cerrillos Hills Historic Park. It was a great day for a leisurely hike. I came across this view while on the Elkins Canyon Trail - what wonderful fall color.

Perfect Fall Flower

During my afternoon walk today I passed a wooden planter filled with these beautiful yellow and red flowers. I thought they were the perfect flowers to see on a wonderful fall day. I think they are some sort of mum but I am not sure.
