Tourists on the square in Santa Fe, NM.

I took this from a personal photo I snapped on a sunny afternoon in Santa Fe. I was so excited to catch the light just as it was—casting those long shadows and giving everything that soft, golden warmth. What really drew me in was the relaxed mood of the people, just soaking in the moment. It felt like such a perfect slice of life, and I couldn’t wait to bring it to canvas.
