What kind of subjects are you interested in? Art works, native American culture, landscapes, street scenes? They are all in northern New Mexico.
You can spend two weeks in Santa Fe itself wandering through art galleries - Santa Fe can be crowded with tourists at times.
I usually stay in Taos at the Inn of the American Artists or Casa de Chimineas. Both lovely places,with excellent hosts. Less crowds, less congestion.
Don't miss driving into the Rio Grande Gorge. Ask the locals where to find the John Dunne bridge. Do not go to the John Dunne bridge if you are afraid of narrow dirt roads on the edge of a gorge...
If you are lucky - and the winds lie down - the balloonists in Taos will take you down the gorge in a hot air balloon. A great way to see the Rio Grande gorge and to photograph it. Landings are interesting too. If you survive ( I did ) they will treat you to champange..
You will want to shoot the ST Francis of Assisi in Rancho de Taos. Ansel Adams did. Shoot early or late for great shadows.
Spend some time in the city market on Saturday morning when the natives sell their silver work.
Drive over to the Brazos cliffs on NM 64 between Tierra Amarilla and Tres Piedres late in the afternoon. This road is frequently closed by snow in the winter. A sports car will be more fun on this road than a mini van..... I ususally use a motorcycle.
Drive up to Ski Taos ski area and look around for interesting murals. Or go east of Raton to the Caupulin Nat Monument to walk through the cone of an old volcano. Continue east on 456 into the Dry Cimmaron River Valley for red rock mesas.
From Santa Fe drive down NM 14 ( the Turquoise Highway ) to Madrid - a little village with aspirations of becoming an artists colony.
Be sure to eat lunch in Chimayo at Rancho de Chimayo. This is on the road to Taos via the High Road to Taos from Santa FE.
And do not miss the drive to Los Alamos - the museum there is interesting as is the drive up to the Mesa.
These suggestion should keep you busy for a few days.
Be sure and let us see some of your pictures when you return. A few of mine are at
