Thought it might be fun to start a new series of posts asking readers to turn detective and identify the subject and location of a photo.
Here's the first in the series. I'll give you a hint--- it was taken somewhere in New Mexico!
Two questions for you sleuths out there:
Here's the photo:

Anyone else want to play? We could start a new group for photo detectives!

Laura, well it looks like a manta ray---but what the heck is it doing in New Mexico?:) Maybe an aquarium?
I had the same thoughts as Robert....I will come back and check for the answer....my husband is guessing maybe in the Carlsbad Cavern...some kind of creature.
Without question....stingray!
A ray in New Mexico? The picture is too obvious, but the clue is throwing a kink on that answer. I will go with a Cactus that looks like a stingray.
Couldn't click my keys quick enough to beat our friends above. Must be the time zones. Stingray in a big fish tank.
ray!
OK, y'all got the stingray part! Any guesses now as to exactly where I found it to take the photo?
Going with a ray .. sucking face ...
A person with a big nose, somewhere in Big Nose land
Eric, you're right about the ray... as to the second part, maybe he was attempting to, but the glass was getting in the way :)
And EEWWW! I was on the other side of the glass taking the pic!
Edward and Celia, LOL!
Aren't there any New Mexicans out there who can figure out where this was taken?
OK Laura, time is up.. Where the heck was it? I assume that there must be a local aquarium in NM
Robert, and everyone,
Yes, there's an Albuquerque Aquarium, and the photo is of a ray in that aquarium.
Thanks, all who played detective!
Good to know Laura. I was going to guess a painting of Mt. Fuji at dusk. Guess I was WAY off, lol
LOL, indeed, Brian!
Anyone else got some puzzling pics to post??
