Dennis B. Villa Pando, Artist

At the far corner of this day's Artists Market, Dennis B. Villa Pando hangs out near his chain saw sculpted creations. In the next booth someone checks out the pottery.

Site Santa Fe

On the corner of Paseo de Peralta and Guadalupe, with the artists out back and the farmers over toward Guadalupe, Site Santa Fe is the main building that catches the eye. Although there is another building with a great mural on it, be sure to see the next panorama...

Look carefully to the left of the building and you can see the white tops of the shady tents set up by the farmers and artists.

Musicians Play at the Farmers Market

Organic produce, plants, baked goods, clothing, art, music...

Over the musicians' shoulders you can see views of the Sangre de Christo foothills. Views while you shop.

Sign for the Artists Market

Looking down Paseo de Peralta you can see the Site Santa Fe building. To the left of that you can see parking and the little white tips of tents off in the distance...shady spots to find vegetables, fruits, and more. The intersection down there is where Guadalupe intersects with Cerrillos.

As you pan left you will see one of cool aspects of Santa Fe: murals on otherwise boring utility boxes and other places with enough space, like the electrical utility building across the street. Yeah murals! Boo graffiti.

Tree Sculpture Bus Stop at Sunset

One of the neat things about Santa Fe is some of the art is useful, or to put it another way, the people holding the purse decided to let an artist do something special instead of just another ______________ in place. In this case it's a bus stop. This bus stop is on Airport Road.

Airport Road runs straight between 599 (Veteran's Memorial Highway) and Cerrillos Road.

As far as views go, this pano is mostly about the sunset illuminating and hiding things with its low angle and intense light. But the observant viewer will see the Sangre de Christo foothills and even the highest points of the Sandia Ridge in Albuquerque. You can locate them to the right of the bus stop, over the field, at the horizon.
