I'm on retreat in Santa Fe for a few days, and between reading a variety of interesting books, I've been giving my camera some exercise. Above is the Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis, from my room. The kiva fireplace in my room and the quarter-hour peal of the cathedral bells make for a most ideal setting. Santa Fe, New Mexico. 5 November 2013.

 On an early morning walk. Can't Seem to get the color quite right, so will try again in the afternoon. Santa Fe, New Mexico. 6 November 2013.

 New Mexico Art Museum. What's not to love about adobe and blue sky?

 Self portrait.

The early morning light makes Kateri Tekakwitha look as if she has tears on her face.
