Day's End

It was actually quite rainy at Bluewater Lake State Park on our weekend, which ended up being a lucky break for us.  These images were all taken the first day we were there, toward the end of the day....


One of the things that I love most about New Mexico is the big sky.  Here I'm standing at our campsite, looking out over the lake at a rain storm that's happening in the distance.  I never get tired of watching the sky open up with a downpour, while I'm standing in absolute dryness!
 


Since it was so cloudy and rainy, we didn't get a spectacular sunset, but I really liked the peaceful feel of this shot as the day ended.


For the above image, I played around with my HDR (High Dynamic Range) software to create a sort of painterly feel to the scene.  I just love the detail that existed in the clouds.
 
Enjoy!
