You didn't happen to gets similar shot with the sun behind one of the crosses, didya?
 
starting to look familiar now - wasn't there some writer or artist or photographer based there?

Georgia O'Keeffe ultimately setled in New Mexico and painted lots of desert landscapes. She did some buildings but more landforms, old cattle skulls, etc. But she really nailed the light of the place.

That MIGHT be who you're thinking of??? She was pretty incredible.

Acoma is one of those places where the light is so beautiful that it is very hard to miss no matter what format one shoots with
 
these shots are going to make me abandon my "i will only use the x100" project and go back to my rx1...GAH!

must... follow.... thro... OH LOOK! A BUTTERFLY!
 
Nice work, Lucille. Acoma is just a very special place, and you've captured some of that really well. I haven't been for a couple of years, so it's probably time for another trip. I never tire of the place.
