Description What is it about color that adds a little joy into the world...
~
FULL VIEW PLEASE

I know two uploads, one day... Expect more from this moment I fortunately captured.

By the way, those colors aren't adjusted. They call them the Sandia Mountains because of the red color they get when the sun sets. Sandia means watermelon in Spanish.

is by who tried to emulate the colors of this shot!

No, that is too far North, this is on the side of the road. I just pulled over and took it!

Great photo, nice foreground and far elements. The color is great. It has layers of color that help define distance. I love this photo.

Where are the "Sandia Mountains"? I am a bit lazy right now and don't really want to look it up.

The colors are natural! It is so neat to see them in person! They are located East of Albuquerque, NM, USA.

Sandia means watermelon and the mountains often look like watermelons.
