Planning a trip to Santa Fe New Mexico and would like to know the best time of year for photography.
I am shooting 4 x 5 Black and White.
I am sure there will be varied responses but I am still curious.
Thanks

Best time of year for what kind of photography?

Time of year is very important for some subject matter. For example some people like to photograph the changing leaves in fall, some want nice clouds, some don't want to battle the summer tourist hordes to photograph buildings, some want to shoot a north facing building with sun on it etc. To me late summer, after the kids are back in school (ie fewer tourists), during our "monsoon season" (better chance of nice clouds) is generally the best time of year in general unless you are looking for something specific which may alter this.

I am thinking about late September or early November.
I don't like crowds.
I like clouds.
I don't like the heat but prefer cooler weather.
Thanks for the input.

the clouds in NM are unlike clouds anywhere else imho
................and after rain, even better too
Kirk's the man on the ground, so who better to advise
good luck with your trip

I'd say September over your other choice. There are a lot of fiestas in Sept, the Fall is my favorite time of year in NM. I lived in southern NM for 10 years.
