A crowd of 20 people gather around a bonfire in the Santa Fe desert at night, their faces illuminated by the flames and colorful fireworks bursting in the sky. Three men and four adults, including a woman, stand out in the urban clothing and footwear they wear, while others wear hats to shield themselves from the heat. The energy and light from the flare create a stunning spectacle.
