Black Mesa rises up 500 from the banks of the Rio Grande in Northern New Mexico. It is home to the San Ildefonso Pueblo in Northern New Mexico.
The photo above is the angle from which I view Black Mesa most often. That is looking Southwest from LaMesilla.
The 'golden' photo was after a summer storm, and the lighting was perfect (no editing was done). I have not seen it like this since I took the photo (in 1999, before I lived here). It just might be part of why I live here today.
