the town that had great expectations of being something bigger, silver city, puts on an impressive bike tour every year in May...TOG (tour of the gila)

90 degree right hander, downtown san lorenzo, nm

then, the local characterful buildings, edifices and shacks can stand in for the usual hi contrasty modern urban scapes seen in so many tired fashion snaps...

well, stand is indeed a euphemism.

By habit rather. Rabbit hather?

and if it so happens jesus, allah, buddha and vishnu all conspire to light the whole place up with the state's biggest wildfire ever?

Find yourself a promontory and stand around in the 95 degree heat amongst the scorpions, vinegaroons and rattle snakes to make 45 pictures at 22 mpix each into an HDR Photomerged native high rez 10 foot wide picture of the place alight!
