Fire in the sky - 01-26-2009, 07:45 PM


The first morning of the nsn workshop on December 6 was by far the best sunrise we saw on either trip to Bosque del Apache last year. Since there are some birds in the water, I felt this was appropriate for the nature section :-)

5s at f/8, ISO 200, D3 with 28-70/2.8 at 60mm

Wow, beautiful shot Bill. That's the kind of shot that I would want to get at Bosque. Looks like you've convinced me to go next year.

Oh my! That is stunning! Tim, will you just swing by Mo City and pick me up on the way. I have to go. I'll just need to stock up on warm clothes between now and then.

I think anyone who's gotten up early enough to watch a sunrise in Bosque knows that it truly looks this grand.

Great capture. Good the clouds came out for you!

Man, that's a beautiful photo! Other than being an excellent photographer, what is it about that place and the colors? Is there something in the air?
