Adobe

    Santa Fe, New Mexico. Pretty spectacular adobe style hotel.

    Adobe is a natural building material mixed from sand, clay, and straw, dung or other fibrous materials, which is shaped into bricks using frames and dried in the sun. It is similar to cob and mudbrick. Adobe structures are extremely durable and account for the oldest extant buildings on the planet. Adobe buildings also offer significant advantages in hot, dry climates; they remain cooler as adobe stores and releases heat very slowly.

      Photo request from a publisher in Taiwan

      Hello Erman Akdogan,

      I'm a reporter of a magazine. For December issue, I am doing an article
      (for Taiwan’s Council of Indigenous Peoples) about
      Santa Fe's Indians-- about its location, history, present situation,
      beautiful landscape, etc.

      I found your photos wonderful and I'm wondering if you are willing
      to provide us some to show on the magazine. And we will give
      credite to you.

      If you need more information about my report,
      please contact me via my emails:
      kathryn1214@hotmail.com
      kathryn1214@gmail.com

      Thank you for reading this long message and
      hope to hear from you soon!

      Best regards,
      Kathryn Chang
