When one enters a village
There have been approximately 1 billion photos made of this church at Ranchos de Taos. And with good reason – it is stunningly beautiful.

The church doors were locked.
But that didn’t stop me from peeking inside a dusty window on the side of the building, where I saw this small chapel that seems to be lit only by those candles in the cross-shaped candelabra.
