The Karl G. Jansky Very large Array (VLA) is a radio astronomy observatory located on the Plains of San Agustin, about 50 miles west of Socorro, New Mexico. It comprises 27 25-meter radio telescopes in a Y-shaped array.
I took this shot as part of a night photography workshop offered in connection with the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge Festival of Cranes (www.festivalofthecranes.com/), which was held November 17-22. It was a great workshop, and I met photographers from all over the world.
The workshop was run by professional photographer Roman Kurywczak (www.roaminwithroman.com), a great guy and a terrific photographer. If you have not visited the VLA, put it on your list. It is otherworldly! The VLA was featured in the 1997 movie, Contact.
I decided to post this as a less “faded” companion to my previous image, Shadow to my Light. This photo was taken in my neighborhood, on one of those winter days when the weather is cloudy and dreary all day and then the sky suddenly lightens along the horizon and the sun makes an appearance just in time to illuminate a beautiful afternoon sunset.
These unexpected sunsets, in a time of year marked by long nights and skies seemingly perpetually arrayed in endless shades of gray, always spark a sense of joy for me. And I can feel a lightness rising in my heart as I watch the sun determinedly burn its way through the clouds and thread the sky with ribbons of light and color in a triumphant celebration of victory over winter’s gloom.
The waters along the Aegean and Mediterranean Sea off the Turkish coast have an array of spectacular colors of blue. In this photo, I was able to capture the seaside before all of the summer tourist arrived. At that point, a little too cold for swimming.

This is a close-up HDR photo of the interior of an electrical surveillance device recessed in the wall of a concrete indoor parkade in Dartmouth. The image looks to me like the set of a sci-fi movie.
Just out of Otis and approaching Pinola, Indiana on November 9th, 2017 is eastbound Norfolk Southern train 24W. – That orange BNSF ES44C4 leader compliments the wide array of surrounding trackside Autumn tree colors very nicely. ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©
