Old Town, Hand Crafted : Albuquerque Photos of the Week<

This scene from Old Towne, Albuquerque, shows a weathered rough-hewn bookshelf with a potted plant against the side wall of an Old Towne gift shop. What attracted my eye is the wonderful Albuquerque colors that come together so well in this composition. Also, this photo gives one a sense of the crafts aesthetic you see so often in Albuquerque. Decorative elements are often hand-made with wood, paint, and whatever is available. That home made charm, a vital element of Albuquerque style, shines through in this photo.
