The bright lights lit up the tunnel in Albuquerque as one must wait for the bikers that go through the tunnel. Above the tunnel you can hear trains but underneath is tunnel vision
A second version of an old barn standing alone as fierce summer thunderstorm approaches - this time a slightly different composition and in greyscale (B&W).
V2 - I decided the original looked too flat and needed more drama.
Old adobe building in the shadow of Pedernal peak in Northern New Mexico, USA
Under the pathway to where the trains travel is a tunnel with the old history of New Mexico. There are photos of New Mexico's first buildings as well as settlers of New Mexico. It's great as people walk and are able to see what New Mexico was and what it has become. The tunnel is in Albuquerque for all to enjoy.

I love the hidden, special places that the geography of New Mexico presents. This area near Abiquiu is one of my favorites with the colorful rocks eroded over the eons that create a tapestry that is, well, special.
The fire was reported last night and as of now has burned ~1,000 acres. The cause is still under investigation.
The Valles Caldera (we just called it Valles Grande when I was growing up) is a 13.7-mile (22.0 km) volcanic caldera in the Jemez Mountains in North-Central New Mexico, USA. It is surrounded by a ring of mountains, the highest of which is Redondo Peak, an 11,253-foot (3,430 m). This is nearly the hightest peak in the Jemez mountains (the highest is Chicoma at 11, 561 feet (3,524 m). My father, who grew up in the area, told us childhood stories of he and his brothers catching minnows there and reselling them for fishing-bait in southern New Mexico. It is an absolutely stunning sight in any season and I was fortunate to catch these two skiers out enjoying the day in the dramatic light.
When the setting sun threw a pink light on my wall I knew we were in for something special. Wildfires are terrible but they make for some pretty stellar sunsets.
Snowy day at the Monastery of Christ in the Desert, a Benedictine monastic community near Abiquiu, New Mexico, USA.
This is the La Iglesia de San Patricio church in San Patricio, New Mexico, USA. The town is named for the church which was built in 1875. In color, the front doors and roof are painted a resounding green to pay homage to its namesake, Saint Patrick.
The Sun was setting and there was a clap of thunder, things got darker and looked like this all of a sudden.
I was expecting tonight’s moonrise to be much earlier. By the time it rose (almost right at the highest point on the mountains) the sun had set and the alpenglow was gone. There was enough ambient light to illuminate the mountains just a bit as the moon FINALLY made its appearance. At first, I was a bit disappointed that I wouldn’t have the red glow on the mountains, but I’m pretty into the moon’s light silhouetting the trees and the overall way this turned out!
I've loved being able to see the comet from my doorstep. However, I wanted to capture it from a different perspective this morning. I was pleasantly suprised to see it easily fit in the frame with the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge.
The National Radio Astronomy Observatory's (NRAO) Very Large Array (VLA) in central New Mexico, USA, is a continuingly fascinating place to photograph. This time I tried out my 10-stop ND filter to achieve a time exposure and capture the motion of the clouds. Of course, in the nearly 3 min exposure, the dish itself move a bit as well. Luckily I had taken a photo without the filter just before and was able to blend the two images together. I hope you enjoy!
This is a photo I captured a few years ago on the Plains of San Agustin near Socorro, New Mexico, USA. A winter storm approached from the West as the radio telescope dishes of the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) continued listening to the Universe Beyond.
The neighboorhood never looked so odd. After I processed this image, it felt like a bit too much pastel to me. I hit the reset button to revert all edits and it really was this pastel looking with such a strange light.
What a beautiful view to be up in the sky with the low line clouds. At first it seemed as if a storm was going to move in but became a beautiful day for all to enjoy being in the air
I took the opportunity to shoot the full moon rising over the mountains near my home yesterday evening, just in case clouds obscured the Lunar Eclipse this morning. I set my scope up and left it overnight. I set my alarm for 4:30am and woke up to low, thin clouds. I went back to bed for 45 minutes and at 5:15 (3 minutes before the maximum eclipse) I went to check again. The clouds were still there so I gave up on trying to image the event. You win some, you lose some. This shot is my consolation prize.
Hot air balloons can be fun, except when it's cold. Once the weather warms, many more hot air balloon rides will be for many in New Mexico.
