Around Taos, New Mexico

Taos is a small, picturesque town north of Santa Fe, New Mexico. It attracts artists, wannabees and tourists. If you go there, bring lots of film, or spare memory cards for your camera.
Clicking on any of these thumbnails will bring up a larger (600x900 pixels) version of the same image, between 100 and 200 kbytes in size.
Pretty, but perhaps too cute? Taos has a population of 5000 and more than 200 art galleries.
Adobe everywhere... The 18th-century church of San Francisco de Asis at Ranchos de Taos, a classic.
The nearby Picuris Pueblo is poor and very small. The interior of its modest church, however, is just astounding in its beautful simplicity.
