Southwest beauty

I went to New Mexico to rest and meditate. I had no idea I would be relaxing while also having my vision shocked by such vibrant hues and textures. Each day was a lesson in color. My east coast palette was challenged by unending earth tones and a new shade of gold I found in the sun. Even the sky seemed different.

The change in scenery did me good... meditating while inspired makes for a very productive trip. I couldn't have asked for a better place to be, or to see.
