No. What's in it?
My overall reaction is that I (me personally) don't go out looking for...
depressing or sad views of the world... nor do I enjoy seeing them. I see
plenty without trying.
Not a criticism of the photos or the subject matter, just a reaction.

Hi Joe,
You asked for reactions so I suppose you won't mind a negative one. To be
truthful, I don't care for either one. While they may be an accurate
representation of the less beautiful, less fortunate side of the American
Southwest, I feel that I see enough ugliness in the world as it is, that I
don't need to see more.
As you obviously know there's plenty of beautiful scenes and vistas in
those areas that are uplifting. It's not that I want to close my eyes
to reality, it's just that I would rather vicariously experience those
mindblowingly beautiful slices of your trips as opposed to the less pretty
ones.
No offense intended.
