When you think New Mexico this image of the New Mexico Supreme Court Building is most likely what you have in your mind. However as I walked around Santa Fe, the details as well as the lines and patterns caught my eye. With the afternoon light illuminating the building, it allowed for the shadows to offset the detail of the structure as I captured the repeating rows of windows along the building.

As I wandered around New Mexico, I noticed from a distance the lines which on this structure and the blue skies. Getting closer to the scene I found a building afternoon cloud which was positioned right behind the building adding to the scene. Over the course of fifteen minutes, I worked to capture the lines of this building with and without the cloud and found that I liked the building clouds since it added to the story of the location.

As I walked around Santa Fe on an early morning I was enjoying the contrast of the adobe architecture and the blue sky of the morning. I walked past the front of a small office building and once I turned the corner noticed how the setback of the second floor allowed my eye to walk up the building. With the sun behind me it illuminated the facade of the building while giving the rich blue morning sky.

Walking around the Ski Santa Fe base area during the summer I was able to capture some of the details of the area which may not be visible once the season starts and there is snow on the ground. For this one image though I was looking up when I caught the reflection of the sky on the main building for the ski area. The windows provided a nice reflection of the building skies which were taking over the blue sky of the morning.
