In the late afternoon we drove down to Abiquiu. There is a car park below the town and here was a  market that was more or less packing up for the day. We went up a tiny road to the town square which was not metalled and very dusty. The adobe Catholic church, St Thomas the Apostle was presiding over the square and the whole place was deserted and silent in the warm light. All the churches I saw had one of these plaques in the churchyard! There must be some heavy spending behind their installation. Admittedly in New Mexico the majority of churches are Roman Catholic. We stopped by the river on the way home. The cottonwoods were glowing in the light and there was a single angler fishing. The last pictures are views of Georgia O'Keeffe’s 'White Place', where she did a number of paintings. Unfortunately it is on private land and not at the moment open to the public. 200mm was as close as I could get! An interesting mesa close to the road
