DescriptionThis image depicts a housing development on the westside of Albuquerque, New Mexico. The foreground and midground are taken up by a section of land that has been worked over by construction equipment and is now just partially wet dirt. The land surrounding this small area is made of various kinds of green and yellow desert plants. The housing development can be seen on the right side of the frame and in the background leading towards the left. In the far background, a large portion of the Sandia Mountains can be seen.
