Introduction to the Guide


The Taos Photography Guide is intended for all those who make their art on site (and often on sight), mainly photographers but also plein air painters, sketchers and watercolorists who love to work outdoors. The locales suggested here, and the opinions about them, are the favorites of the authors and their friends and artist associates in and around the Taos area.

This guide does not recommend specific images or sights. There are no "picture spots" or GPS coordinates accompanied by instructions to face NNE at 3PM in October for a great shot or scene. The guide is all about pointing out places that have touched the eyes and hearts of the artists who work in the area and to bring you down roads, up trails and through towns that might touch you in similar ways.
