2012 ended with a beautiful sunset. Laurie walked by the window and said “Oh! The base of the Sandias are on fire!” I grabbed my camera and made the 1/4 mile dash to the river bank just in time to get the red as it faded with the last sunlight of 2012. As I walked out of the bosque, the last sunset of 2012 was quite dramatic, as was the morning light offering beauty and promise for 2013.
I start the new year with my 600th consecutive post on WordPress, and 908th consecutive post since I started on CaringBridge in July of 2010. According to WordPress’s annual report, I had over 10,000 views in 2012 from people in 83 countries, — the US, the Netherlands, the UK, Canada and Russia were the top five. Thank you all for a great 2012 and I look forward to an even better 2013.

The last five photos are from a promotional photo shoot I did for the show last week, and Three Guys and a Guitar I posted on December 28, 2012 was one of the photos from the session. From the 10 minutes of rehearsal I saw before the shoot, and my interactions with Devon and the cast, The Wedding Singer looks like it will be a fun-filled production with lots of music and dance, and a friendly cast of whacky, colorful characters.
Off Center & Not Even 
And a happy new year to you also.
I saw the fabulous sunset from the window at my mom’s house, but, alas, did not have my camera with me. I am glad you captured it. Driving home, some snow was falling on the Sandias, and was lit up with pink. Again, no camera, but I certainly enjoyed seeing both the east side and west side of this sunset.
Thanks, Susan. You need a “carry camera”!
Yes,I do! I have a G11 that I really ought to keep with me (it shoots raw and macro, so better than nothing!)
Great shots! Happy New Year
Thanks!
What great photos! It was so neat to get the geese in that first picture and the Sandias were so pink. Thanks for the “last” and “first” pictures. A great theme. I also appreciate your daily commentary as it makes the pictures even more meaningful.
Absolutely gorgeous photos of our mountains. Congratulations on all the amazing accomplishments you have achieved this year. I look forward to seeing more of your beautiful work. Hove the best year yet in 2013.
Thanks, Lois!
