Yes, they really look like that! This view is looking SSE from Llano Quemado, south of Taos, NM.

That’s BEAUTIFUL! (and pretty darn Amazing as well) Nice Job John…
Hope it brightened YOUR day as well….The early cold, drizzle and mud can probably be a real downer I bet….but …Visions such as in this photo certainly help to erase the other issues that rear their ugly heads too often!!

Esta bien!! : )

No mud now, it’s all frozen. Got down to 12° overnight, yow! Single digits forecast for tonight. I’m already burning wood 24/7.

But yeah, ain’t that photo grand? 🙂

Wow!

Thank you for taking that picture.

You’re welcome, Kile. Blows my mind, too.

That is CRAZY GOOD !!!
It almost looks like the glow some forest fires make….glad it’s not.

The contrast is boosted just a tiny bit because I took the shot at dusk, but those colors are absolutely authentic. I have tons of images like this. It almost gets to where one takes these scenes for granted. I hope I never do!

I take great pride in the fact that in my four years at UNM, I looked at the Sandias every single day with amazement.
