Real de Catorce, San Luis Potosi state, Mexico, at twilight, it was getting dark and my mind was preoccupied by the prospect of going down the steep slippery stone trail in the dark, thankfully I did NOT end up in a Mexican hospital with a fractured ankle this time. Happy Monday to everyone.
Sunset above the former silver mining village of Real de Catorce, San Luis Potosi state, Mexico, the elevation here is about 2,743 meters (9,000 ft), that, combined with the dry air means extreme temperature differences between day and night, though the humidity is almost nonexistent, so it never feels really hot or cold. Once a ghost town, nowadays it's pure mayhem on weekends with Mexican tourists, I arrived on a Sunday afternoon as they were leaving, the whole town was a bumper to bumper traffic jam, there was no one left by the time this photo was taken.
From Wiki:
Two uploads from the same spot today, the daytime one was taken in the afternoon with dark storm clouds that didn't end up dropping a single drop of rain, the other one was taken before sunrise, both from the terrace of my accommodation in Real de Catorce, Mexico.
Happy weekend to everyone.

La cruz y la luna, en Real de Catorce, San Luis Potosí, México.
La tomé pensando en "La esfera y la cruz" de Chesterton, que recién había leído...

Noche de estrellas, en Real de 14, SLP
Ver las estrellas, es mucho mas que ver el cielo.. es ver el pasado, hoy, es ver como se vio durante millones de años nuestra no-grandeza
Vidi stelojn, estas pli ol vidi la ĉielon, estas vidi la estintecon, nun, vidi kiel dum miloj da jaroj, nia malgrandeco
Vi scias, ke vi esas stelo, ne ĉesi brili
¿Fue vivir a mil por hora
o esa forma de cruzar el fuego?
Dejaste cartas y nudos de nostalgia
Pienso en tu alma corriendo calle abajo.
