Uniquely New Mexico: Spectacular Skies and Hot Air Balloons 🙂
Uniquely New Mexico: so many things! All of you know how much I love so many things about New Mexico. Just because wanted to, I took a few minutes to unwind with new software, my kind of sunrise, and a perfect New Mexico balloon. I think of the D H Lawrence quote almost every time I see a sunrise here with clouds.
I think New Mexico was the greatest experience from the outside world that I have ever had. It certainly changed me forever. . . . the moment I saw the brilliant, proud morning shine high up over the deserts of Santa Fe, something stood still in my soul, and I started to attend. . . . In the magnificent fierce morning of New Mexico one sprang awake, a new part of the soul woke up suddenly and the old world gave way to a new.
There are all kinds of beauty in the world, thank God, though ugliness is homogeneous. . . . But for a greatness of beauty I have never experienced anything like New Mexico.
Wishing you a spectacular day wherever you are.
Great balloon image Susan!
Hi, Dennis. Thank you, and thanks for dropping by. Coming from “Mr. Balloon Photographer” (among many other things), that means a lot!!!! 🙂
Marvelous colors ! Dreamlike !
Hi, Marie-Claude! So nice to see you! The colors here – well, the light really – is so wonderful. I was following Nick Marino on FB when he came to a part of Africa which must be very much like here. He was initially shocked that such colors really existed (outside of Photoshop), and he very quickly fell in love with them. I enjoyed all of his things that I read (and the images to go with that, of course), but the one on the skies and colors somewhere in Africa stood out because it was clear it was new to him at that time.
Thank you for coming by today! 🙂
