Sunset in Meadow Lake, New Mexico

An Early Monsoon Season

     Monsoon season usually arrives in New Mexico in July and August but this year there were many stormy evenings in May, and then not as many as expected later in the summer. The dramatic clouds and rain often make for spectacular sunsets!

Tales From The Dark Continent Part 4: The Hippo

Tales From The Dark Continent, The Hippo

Disclaimer

     In October of 2005, I was commissioned to photograph a big game hunt in South Africa. I have elected not to share most of the photographs and names have been changed to protect the guilty. These are my stories.

The Hippo

     It seems weird now, nineteen years later, to return to the Dark Continent for these stories. I wish I had never gone there but people wish for a lot of things. The past tense of wish is regret.
     I was talking to my former employer the other day and he told me that he quit hunting and sold all his trophies, and by trophies he means heads. He sold them all. It doesn’t seem right to kill something just to put it’s head on your wall but at least you can say, “I did that. I killed that thing and now you see its head there on my wall.”

ABQ BioPark: The Zoo Is For Grown-Ups Too!

The newest exhibit at the ABQ BioPark Zoo: Penguin Chill!

Five Reasons The ABQ BioPark Zoo Is Fun For Adults

     It goes without saying that families love to take their kids to the zoo, and for obvious reasons. Visiting the zoo, exposes young people to animals they may otherwise not ever see, or even know exist, and the zoo helps to foster a respect for wildlife and to educate about the need for conservation. 
     That's all well and good but I'm an adult who doesn't have children and I like the zoo too! Here are my top five reasons why the Albuquerque Bio Park Zoo is one of my favorite places to visit on a regular basis.

Dramatic New Mexico sunset. Photo by DeAnna Vincent

A Free Show That Never Disappoints

     April of 2019 was a particularly prolific month for the New Mexico sky. Almost every day, I would look out my back door and see something amazing. It took a lot of work to narrow it down to only the best images. I mean, how do you pick which of your children is your favorite?
     Sunset tip: It's all about the clouds. When guessing whether or not there's going to be a good sunset on any given night, look for clouds. Too many clouds could mean an all grey dud, but no clouds almost certainly means a very un-dramatic ending to the day.

New Mexico sunset

Sunsets, A Year In Review

     Every evening I sit at the dining room window and watch to see what my New Mexico sky is going to do. On some cloudless nights, it doesn't do much, but when those clouds roll in the show is a sight to behold. And all I have to do is step out my back door! I have so many of these sunset images that it would be silly to try to put them all in one blog post so these are my best shots from the month of March 2019.
