Mora River Near Mora, New Mexico circa 1996 or 1997 - I took this while exploring New Mexico during my first couple years here in The Land Of Enchantment. I loved the way the light was shining of the water and the golden grasses around it. #PhotosOfNewMexico #MoraRiver #MoraNewMexico #RuralNewMexico #NewMexico #LandOfEnchantment (at Mora County, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYNAq6hv0zw/?utm_medium=tumblr

Mora County New Mexico (This is either the Mora River or an acequia using the water from the river). I took this some 22 years ago while exploring Northern New Mexico). #MoraNewMexico #MoraRiver #NewMexicoPhotography #NewMexico #LandOfEnchantment #PhotoByJeriRae (at Mora County, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN5RVzLlrip/?igshid=kgqpw8uw2khi

One of my favorite photos. I love the sun glistening off the water and the surrounding fields. , One of the many beautiful places in Northern New Mexico - this particular spot is on Route 518 about 2 miles and a quarter from the center of Mora. This is the Mora River going over some human made waterfalls that help control the river. Like many rivers, brooks and streams in New Mexico the Mora River is used to irrigate farms and ranches, often using #acequia. Acequias or séquias are community-operated watercourses that were built many years, often centuries, in the past and maintained by the communities that depend on them. These are so revered that they have been feature in political advertising. In the high desert of Northern New Mexico, water is life and has been the cause of skirmishes and anger as well as cooperation and happiness.• • #MoraRiver #MoraCounty #NewMexico #WaterIsLife #Waterfall #SunGlistening #LandOfEnchantment #NM518 https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ8VOBRFe_n/?igshid=1rng4vzgatu97
