Adobe Walls with Snow, June 13, 2008
I took these photographs at my house in Albuquerque, New Mexico on December 31, 2006 after an unusually powerful snowstorm that left a large part of the state paralyzed for three or four days. In Winter, Albuquerque normally gets a dusting of snow that lasts a few hours and is gone by lunch time. This storm dropped between 18 to 24 inches of snow in the city and much, much more at the higher elevations. For those of us in the city, it was an opportunity for snow play and fun, especially as it occurred just at New Year's Eve. For travelers, those using air or car, it was a nightmare waiting until the airport and the freeways were reopened.
For a photographer, it was a chance to take beautiful pictures around the city. I particularly like the look of adobe walls with the bright New Mexico sun glinting of the snow.
Enjoy!
