People talk a lot about the light in Marfa, and it is wonderful. It's the kind of light that fills your room in the morning, inviting you outside where the sky is a shade of blue you've never seen before. Lately, though, I've been appreciating shadows even more than light. I walked the Dixon Ranch trail this morning, and the sun was rising over my right shoulder. I kept pace with my shadow the length of the trail, watching it cross other shadows of long grass bending west.
And so, a quick meditation on light and dark, from photos taken around town and in the store--I love the hidden "M" stamped on the wall. Enjoy, Mirthlings!
