Animas New Mexico desert landscapes

Animas, New Mexico at sunset rural land real estate photography

Animas sunsets

Delayed by weeks because of weather, I was finally able to drive to the remote town of Lordsburg, New Mexico, in the far southwest of the state for a serious of rural land real estate shoots. I was last in this area in October 2018 for more photo work for Hemingway Land. These photos are actually from properties close to the very tiny town of Animas, a one gas station town that is one of the only places to get gas in the extreme southwest area of New Mexico. How do I know this? Because in January returning from a vacation that ended in Bisbee, Arizona heading to Columbus, New Mexico, I needed gas for the Jeep and this was the only place around! What else is in this area? Not much at all. If you want privacy and to be off the grid, this is the area for it and needs it because if you want to buy a 4K TV in person, you have at least a 2 hour drive!
