Town’s simple rhythms

I stopped to get some photos of a car wash (I always think I’ll like photos of car washes, but to date I haven’t actually made any that are bloggable.) It had rained earlier in the day, and that nice puddle caught my attention, and then I saw the reflection of all that stuff.

And the car wash photos? I’ll just say you won’t see them here.

Clouds overhead were ghostly gray

It’s unusual to see cloudy skies out here. These kinds of clouds, anyway – low gray ones that hang around all day. In the summer, it’s not uncommon to have thunderclouds build up and quickly dissipate.

But how about the way the lighter shapes in the clouds echo the shape of the shrubbery by the stairs?

This is where it gets trippy

I was inside the building, looking at a painting of the outside of it. Art is crazy sometimes.

Dazzled by the Visions

A leaf-embellished metal grate guards some statues, photos of people for whom prayers have been requested, and one man.

Sky Cross

I’ve been the Chimayó many times, and expect to see crosses everywhere.

Just not in the sky….
