Street Buskers
Very different from the summer months, Santa Fe in the winter seems to have less sunshine and more clouds, but the culture remains the same! I was quite surprised to see these street buskers entertaining in the Plaza on Sunday morning--it's not a common sight. If it's a festival or market, there is cultural entertainment, but I haven't seen buskers before; but then again, I'm not here year round. The music and song were a pleasant experience and brightened the cloudy sky that day. Weather at this time of year is more than interesting. The sun which seems to be constant in the summer by contrast in February shines brightly for awhile and then the clouds roll over the bright orb. It's a mixture of weather elements. The sun, however, appeared to be brighter and lasted longer yesterday than it has since we've arrived.

ReplyDeleteI would be tossing coins in their fiddle cases! Great shot. I adore the city daily photo shots that really capture the essence of the community. It is hard to do every day. This is one of those shots. Great slice of life in Santa Fe.

Lovely costumes on these girls. It must have been enjoyable to listen to them perform.

ReplyDeleteWe love these little groups, and get to listen to a variety of music every week at the farmer's market here in Las Cruces. Wonderful photos, thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI've just managed to follow you over here. Thank you for your always kind comments, Kate, particularly since you're on holiday. And happy anniversary! And yes, I do love to play with words.
ReplyDeleteI love the yellow roses and sashes-- very sunshiny, even on a cloudy day.
ReplyDeleteThe costumes are lovely, I'm sure they are played well. I'm glad the weather is good and the days are getting longer. A great day even here, today.
ReplyDeleteI play violin too so I would have loved to have heard them play! Colorful outfits! Bon weekend, Great Kate!
