What I like best about New Mexico is the low population density. What I like second best is the sky. I've seen the best clouds and sky colors here! Even when there are no clouds the sky is beautiful and blue all the way down to the horizon.

Tonight's sunset was lovely. I thought about going down the road a couple of miles so I could get an unobstructed view of the western horizon, but I was a bit too lazy and was having too much fun playing with the cats and kittens in the front yard. So this was what I could see above the roof of the house -- a nice end to a relaxing day :-)

Before the fifty days are over, you will have to force yourself down the road for at least one unobstructed sunset. In the meantime, this is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

no kidding, that's gorgeous. And the crop suits it -- the angles work well within a square, I think.

Woah - another one! Gorgeous! Love the rays and the colors. I should get off my butt and take some sunset photos. Every night there's a spectacle outside my balcony.

I don't think I've ever gotten of picture of actual light rays. I'll have to watch for them. Very lovely capture.
