RETURN gallery, Taos, the light of the pyramid


SINCE YOU ASKED, THE LAST POST'S PHOTO WAS TAKEN ABOUT
25 YEARS AGO IN TAOS. THIS IS THE TOP OF THE ROOF ON RETURN GALLERY.
MY FRIEND DAVID'S GALLERY. HE DESIGNED AND BUILT MOST OF IT.
WHEN I ARRIVED FOR MY SUMMER VISIT, I CRAWLED ONTO THE ROOF WITH MY
35MM CAMERA AND LAY ON MY STOMACH TO SHOOT THE SUNSET. 
THE GLASS PYRAMID IS AT THE PEAK, WITH COPPER COVERING BELOW. 



THIS IS TAKEN FROM THE INTERIOR, LOOKING UP, WITH THE VENTS OPEN.



A QUIET INTERIOR CORNER...with "chaco canyon" type rock work framing the window.
