Spirits of New Mexico

In case you didn't know, New Mexico has a rich and radiant history in the atomic energy field.  This was illegally shot at the New Mexico Museum of Fine Arts in Santa Fe, NM.  The show was called, "How the West Is One" and featured many different Nuevo Mexicano artists and works.   The above piece consisted of a special geiger counter and a framed photograph of the first atomic explosion at Alamagordo, NM in July 1945.  unsure of the date.  I greened the photo up a little to look more radioactive.
