TBT This night 11 years ago I was coming back from a long wander and saw this view of Santa Fe just as the light from the sun began showing up behind the Sangre De Christo Mountains.

Yesterday #morning, the #Predawn #sky on the #EasternHorizon was very colourful and so I took these #photographs, with prominent #Pink, #Orange and a bit of #Grey in front of the #Blue. The #silhouettes of #trees and #buildings adds some dark contrast to the #foreground.

TBT This is very early in the morning eight years ago today on the Rio Salado near Zia Pueblo. I was off to see the Black Place and the Bisti Badlands and stopped to look at the rising moon just before sunrise.
