Just south of the Alameda bridge, there are various ponds filled with muddy water from the Rio Grande, that reflect nicely on a still day.

Day for the Dead
Weather or Not Here I Come
Cold, cloudy morning. Partly cloudy, cold afternoon.
Red & Green
Rugged pink Sandias, paddlers at dusk, and a view of the sunset from the bosque.
Drive-By from the Fly-Over
As I started up the fly-over driving from Coors Blvd to I-40, I noticed the balloons in the sun. I got three blind drive-by’s as a drove over the fly-over and under the balloons.
iSky
Does a sky photographed using a digital camera become an iSky?
Dump Day Drive By’s
I took a load of junk to the dump this morning and got drive by’s on the way home. The second photo is seagulls foraging through the trash after a bulldozer mixed it up. I couldn’t get close enough to get really clear shots of the seagulls, but they really are seagulls in the high desert, not just trash blowing around.
Morning, Noon & Almost Night
Are you finding yourself well rested, and full of energy after waking up to a clock showing the time an hour later than normal? I’m not. The photos in the series today were taken at 9:31 am, a little before noon (11:48 am) and at 7:09 pm.
When I noticed the contrails casting shadows on the clouds above them, I had to do a drive-by photo. The effect was so weird because I was heading east, the sun is still pretty far south, yet the shadows were cast on both sides of the contrails as if there were two light sources: the sun from the south and another light source from the northwest. Furthermore, for the contrails to cast shadows at all, it’s as if the sun were below the clouds. This is when things STOP making sense, you reach a DEAD END, the sun goes down, and you’re still confused.
First Snow in 2014
We got our first snow of 2014. Even in color, the snow on the black bamboo makes a B&W photo. My B&W panorama of the Sandias taken through the windshield while driving on Alameda is “not even”, and the last photo is looking west at the volcanos from Lomas and I-25.
Misty Mountains, Shaggy Dogs & Magic Light
On our way to rent a pressure sprayer to prepare the slab in the catio for resurfacing, we got distracted by misty mountains and shaggy dogs, and ended up not getting the pressure sprayer. Such is life and art in New Mexico.
