On the last day of 2021, new year's eve, I walked with my camera in a town in New Mexico called "Truth or Consequences". It was for me as wild a place as its name. There were no people on the streets, no cars, no noise as if all humans had disappeared without chaos or death. "Dusk and Fantasy" presents this post-apocalyptic scene, which feels peaceful and colorful, with no sadness.
