Polo was just getting started with the visit when the weather began changing. The first puddles started appearing around the campground, creating reflections across the ground and giving us a completely different view of the New Mexico landscape.
For a place known for its dry, rugged surroundings, watching rainwater collect across the campground is something worth documenting. These first puddles became the beginning of a much bigger weather story.
