Surprisingly good

I've lived in New Mexico for most of my life, and usually find photo books of the state to be pretty bland and unexciting: adobe areas of Santa Fe, red chile ristras hanging in doorways, monotonous collections of animal-shaped hot air ballons, and Socorro's Very Large Array of satellites facing the sky like sunflowers. This book has all those things, but it also has a good variety of weird natural formations, urban parts of Albuquerque, and even some ruins. Many of the photos are beautiful, and overall the collection is eclectic enough to give a person a good idea of many of the unique facets and areas of New Mexico.
