Trip Info
“…the skies and land are so enormous, and the detail so precise and exquisite that wherever you are, you are isolated in a glowing world between the macro and the micro.”
-Ansel Adams on Ghost Ranch.
Ghost Ranch, Abiquiu and Plaza Blanca are all located about an hour from both Santa Fe and Taos and are the epicenter of some of the most spectacular scenery in New Mexico. Combine this with early Spanish architecture, 100+ year old Hispanic adobe structures, dozens of old western movie locations and some of the oldest written history in the United States, you will become overwhelmed with the beauty and feeling that is New Mexico and this exquisite photo tour.
Artist Georgia O’Keefe spent the last half of her life living in Abiquiu and creating some of her most famous works of art along with introducing the area to such prominent photographers as Ansel Adams and Eliot Porter. Hollywood discovered the area decades ago too. Here is a very short list of movies that have used the backdrop of this uniquely beautiful area to help tell their stories:
• The Lone ranger (2013)
• Bless Me Ultima (2013)
• Cowboys & Aliens (2011)
• Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)
• 3:10 to Yuma (2007)
• Wyatt Earp (1994)
• City Slickers (1991)
• Young Guns (1988)
• Silverado (1985)
Your adventure awaits!
