On October 11th, after freshening up at our hotel following a busy day at White Sands National Park and the Aguirre Springs Recreation area, we headed over to the Paseo de Oñate a little before sunset and hoped for a great display. Unfortunately we didn't get one, as you see above. Eventually some clouds turned pastel colors that were pleasant enough but not fantastic:     We walked back to the car and headed for our hotel. As we drove west along East Lohman Avenue, the clouds in front of us turned from pastel to fiery. I hastily pulled into the parking lot for some stores, scampered about for vantage points that would exclude or minimize buildings, poles, and wires, and finally got my saturated New Mexico sunset.     © 2022 Steven Schwartzman       Comment Like You can also reply to this email to leave a comment.
