his is a New Mexico picture. Sometimes I just see shapes and I want to see what they look when I photograph them. I’d forgotten this picture until Amazon found it some buried sub-archive. Boy, was I happily surprised.
I’d tell you that this is an adobe wall, but it is not. It is some kind of concrete that is made to look like adobe. It’s sort of a touristic thing to do when you want to attract people to your business as they are wandering around Santa Fe.
Some would say that this is not real adobe that the picture isn’t true.
Of course it’s true. It’s not a study of construction method, it’s a study of the shape created by that dark gap in the wall.
Some people, Sheesh.
