Misty Morning Before The (Maybe) Storm


The weather guru's are predicting a winter storm for us here in (normally) sunny New Mexico!  I have to admit, after no real winter storm last year, I am hoping for a fabulous wintry storm this weekend.  Whatever happens, it won't last very long!  Still, this morning was really pretty, a misty morning before the storm....


I loved the sort of morning glow of this image, looking toward where the sunrise was happening (behind the cloud bank).  It was so still......


The above shot evoked such a sort of melancholy feeling.  I'm looking directly north from our back patio.  There should be the Santa Fe Mountains out there - I'm sure they're there, just hiding behind the front that is beginning to make its way toward us....


A few minutes later, the sun briefly made an appearance.  The mountain here is "our" mountain, South Mountain.  It's not part of the Santa Fe Mountains (which never appeared all day), and is much closer to us, so it was not overtaken by the storm front yet.  I really love the way a cloud bank is just sort of hanging between the ground and the top of South Mountain.  Hope we get that storm!
 
Enjoy!!
