I Think Snow Paints When She Falls... In Santa Fe

I think snow paints when she falls. Which is why I love Santa Fe's seasons. It is March in Santa Fe and winter decided to pay us a visit in the night like a gypsy.By dark, it looked like a mini-blizzard with all kinds of warnings about winter. Now, winter has come to Santa Fe for centuries and frankly I fail to understand why anyone has to be warned. It is as if snow is an enemy or something. For our community, snow is a blessing because it is water. At the same time, when daylight arrives and the snow has settled, the landscape in my Northside Vista Encandata neighborhood is transformed into another one-of-a-kind moment. I made this image around 8:30 this morning facing east looking towards the Sangre de Cristo mountain range. It was still snowing in the mountains when I clicked the shutter as the Santa Fe Ski Basin was completely invisible.

Now, I’m warning you. Santa Fe can become addictive! If you love the beautiful way mother nature delivers winter in Santa Fe, then just imagine what happens when she delivers spring, summer and fall. This is why I relocated here from Washington DC nearly 20 years ago. The landscape changes into another beautiful surprise every day.

Give me a call if you want to see how you can be here too. Our home and land prices are the lowest in years and mortgage interest rates are no where near the high of 15.75 percent like they were 30 years ago.

Emily ~ It is amazing what a little snow can do in terms of changing the landscape. Certain things seem to stand out more when they're highlighted by those frozen water formations.

What a beautiful photo. A lot of folks don't imagine snow in the desert like this so it's a refreshing shot. Mel and I lived in Angel Fire, NM for a couple years several years ago, we remember Santa Fe fondly and we miss the southwest at times. Thanks for sharing.

Jon, sometimes just a inch or two of snow can change your entire perspective of the day. I see snow as one of those magic gifts, especially given every snowflake is unique.

Barbara, thank you. A few moments after I pulled over, other cars began to stop and just watched the morning light unfold. Our Santa Fe architecture tends to let us see for miles without tall buildings getting in the way.

Marge, when the sun broke through the clouds, she melted the snow and winter disappeared almost as fast as she arrived. However, I understand and thanks for stopping by.

Gretchen, you must come back for a visit. Angel Fire certainly has a landscape of mountains unbeatable. They have real winters there.
