Tonight's Sunset

Here are a couple of sunset photos from tonight. The above shot was early on in the process, and the one below was taken just a minute or two before the gloriousness (is that a word?) was over. I took the above one from our front courtyard, and then wandered around out back of our house & our next door neighbor's.
What a beautiful area we live in! Enjoy!!

Yesterday's Sunset

I just had to share these wonderful images from yesterday's sunset. It was really rose and purple, even though it looks somewhat surreal! The above and below photos were taken with our neighbor's horse corral in the foreground. If you look closely at the image below, you can see Patches, the painted pony (look for the patches of white).
I turned from taking the sunset photos and saw almost the exact opposite effect in the sky toward the north. The sunset over the San Pedro Mountains looks almost pastel by comparison. Same sunset, same time, very different results!

Enjoy!

Glorious Sunset!

Check out the great sunset we had the other evening. All of these photos are of the same sunset - you can actually see how the clouds are very similar if not the same in some of the photos.
Wouldn't the above photo make a great bookmark? I really like the glow of the sun on the clouds on the left side of the photo.

These two photos (above and below) are the first photos that I have of Jazz, our friends' new horse. She's a mare, about 4-5 years old. She's very shy and not fully trustful of people yet. Our friends believe that at some point in her life she was either mistreated or just trained rather roughly. She is very pretty, and is slowly coming around, and it will be nice when that happens.

The last photo (below) is a great one of the sky, isn't it? It's one of the major reasons why I love living here so much!

Enjoy!

Camping at Rockhound State Park

It's the first camping trip of the season - and what beautiful sights we've already seen! The photo, above, is of Florida Mountain. I took it while we were walking in the foothills of the Little Florida Mountains, which directly face it. The campground is sort of in a little valley between the two. There are prickly pear cactus all around, as you can see from this photo. Very cool!
This sunset image was actually shot yesterday, and is looking directly west from our campsite. We're down in southwest New Mexico, near a town called Deming. Weather is great - low 60's during the day and into the 30's at night - great campfire weather! Enjoy!
