Fine Art Images from the American Southwest

Taos Pueblo, Las Trampas, Mountains. 12-25-2024

Greetings from San Cristobal, New Mexico. This week, three scenes: one each from Taos Pueblo, Las Trampas Church, and the wintery peaks of Truchas and the Pecos Wilderness.

I shot this image of Taos Pueblo many years ago. I think it was shot on Kodachrome 64 and scanned. I like it for the feeling and remember how cold it was when I look at it now.

And lastly, the snow-covered Truchas Peaks. A view from south of Taos on an evening hike many moons ago.

As always, Thank you for looking. I hope everyone has a good holiday season. Thank you for your constant and continued support, and I’ll see you next year. G

  1. I searched “Spanish Land Grants in NM” and read about the Romeros in Truchas so I asked Michael Romero, my yoga teacher on Diamond Head, O’ahu, “Did your family settle in Truchas?” He answered that as a kid he had been terrified when he saw the eye-shine of the deer outside his bedroom window.

    Your photos bring fond memories every time you post, Geraint. Blessed New Year to you and your loved ones.
