Looking West at Sunset, September 4, 2009
You have seen the rainbow in the purple-pink sky from September 4. That was looking east, toward the Sandia Mountains.
There was an equally spectacular view looking to the west.

Tonight’s Sky – A Single Rainbow
In Albuquerque, rainbows frequently occur in pairs. Tonight, however, we got a single rainbow. It was gorgeous, though.

New Sky Series: Sky Light II
This photograph is the first in a new series of skyscapes.
Photographs in the Sky Light I series were “grounded” – although mostly sky, something in the photograph tied the viewer to the earth.
In the Sky Light II series, the viewer is allowed – indeed, encouraged – to let thoughts to soar beyond the grounded earth. I hope you enjoy the skyscapes to come in this new series.

Fiery August Sunset
Just when I think I have seen all the beautiful sunsets, Mother Nature surprises me again. Today was pretty cloudy and dismal. But, this is what appeared on cue, at sunset!

Summer Afternoon Sky
Sunsets here are so spectacular, that sometimes I forget to mention how beautiful our skies are most of the time most days. This was yesterday afternoon, just an ordinary day in the Desert Southwest.

Another Amazing Sunset
Sunsets in New Mexico are usually beautiful. It seems that this summer we are having even more spectacular sunsets almost every night. Light is so involved in the beauty of the American Southwest.
