Is it possible to publish too many images of Sierra County’s atmospherics? We think not. The endless formations and colors of the clouds and the fluid play of light and shadow against the enternal stillness of the high Chihuahuan desert are among the main attractions of living here. Without further ado, enjoy this awe-inspiring variation on the theme of our big sky.

    Why we all live in New Mexico! I have lived in the Moreno Valley north of Taos, a village between Espanola and Taos. And have traveled most of the state. The beauty and landscape always have surprises and elegant moments available.
