Synopsis: The pulse of Santa Fe, bursting with colour and creativity, is depicted in this photographic homage to the City Different. Gene Peach has been photographing Santa Fe for twenty-five years, observing its changes, its traditions and constancy, the vibrancy of its people and celebrations, its natural beauty and style. Summer is the heart of Santa Fe -- a kaleidoscope of activity centred downtown on the plaza. Low-riders cruise in their mobile works of art; Native American vendors display their handmade jewellery, pottery and other traditional arts under the Palace portal; local musicians rock the bandstand for dancing locals. As an art centre, Santa Fe is unrivalled; Canyon Road with its cornucopia of galleries; Indian, Spanish and International Folk Art markets highlight the finest indigenous art and crafts in the world; world-class opera and chamber music fill the summer nights. Autumn is harvest time for red chile, apples and an array of home-grown festivities kicked off by Fiesta and the burning of Zozobra. Winter brings upland snows to rooftops brightened with the farolitos of Christmas and holiday traditions.Spring observes Holy week pilgrimage and then burst into colour as the acequias begin to run.
