Northwest Wanderer Posted February 22, 2013 Share #3 Posted February 22, 2013 Karl, Nice mountain image. Where in N.M. was it taken? I've lived all over the western U.S. and must say N.M. has a special feel to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauledell Posted February 22, 2013 Share #4 Posted February 22, 2013 K-H, A lovely shot with the composition, colors and clarity. I like the vastness and the atmosphere. Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
k-hawinkler Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share #5 Posted February 22, 2013 George, Bill, Paul, Thank you . Bill, The houses you see in the foreground are located in front of the White Rock Canyon of the Rio Grande. The trees are partially covering up the highest part of the east side of that canyon. The mountains are about 20 miles line-of-sight away taken with effectively a 300 mm focal length FOV. The image shows just a small sliver of the Sangre de Cristos north of Santa Fe. That part of the mountain with its snow clouds had interesting light on it from the afternoon Sun. So I took a shot during my daily walk. That was yesterday. During last night it snowed again, also at the lower elevations, so the entire landscape was blanketed with snow. However, the snow at the lower elevations lasts only a few hours and has completely melted by now and the mountains are completely obscured by the clouds. But that can change fairly fast as the Sun light already is breaking through the clouds, giving rise to interesting but spotty illumination again. I like this kind of weather.

allamande Posted February 22, 2013 Share #6 Posted February 22, 2013 K.-H., It's a glorious Santa Fe light and vision! The SdCs look so inviting. I also loved reading your description, felt right there. I hope you show us the freshly fallen snow, when the peaks show up. Ece Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northwest Wanderer Posted February 22, 2013 Share #8 Posted February 22, 2013 Thanks for the info Karl. I was curious because the area looked familiar to me. I lived down in Santa Fe years ago. Nice area with an interesting culture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
