RAIN


I think it is pretty remarkable that I can see rain in the distance. That phenomena surprised me when I first came to Santa Fe. The Southwest skies are a constant source of fascination for me, never tiring of the marvelous vistas.

    Out west, we can see much further than we can back east. At lease in my part of the northeast, we have so many buildings and trees that we rarely get wide vistas like this.

    We can see rain like that here in Texas too so I always thought everyone saw these skies. I do miss the beautiful skies in Arizona. That west-setting sun picks up the most beautiful reflections from dust and pollution particles!

    Cool shot...we get those skies here just about every afternoon in the summer. And sometimes it can rain across the street while the other side remains totally dry. Like yesterday!

    I get to see skies like that frequently from my 23rd floor office in Phoenix. Yesterday was the first day when it appeared that the monsoon season is starting.

    We could use some of that in Phoenix.

    I LOVE those desert storms. Such drama! You caught it nicely.

    Glad to hear you have a new basket - I hope you love it and that you'll post a shot of it in action.

    I find it interesting that you can see rain fall from the sky like that!

    You can always see it coming at least. Do you sit on a balcony and just stare sometimes?
