Sandia Sunset

Scouting is done, sunset is pegged at slightly after 7:30, cameras, snacks and camp chairs are in the car...

We had a lovely visit waiting for the perfect photo moment. I think I need Photoshop...

Casa Rodeña Winery

My Niece-From-Napa apparently can't get enough of wine! So, we spent an afternoon at the Casa Rodeña winery :-)

Sandia Sunset Scouting

My niece, The Photographer, is coming to visit, and one thing on our list is to get a shot of the Sandia mountains at sunset!

So I scouted a few places:
- Rio Rancho is on a rise to the West, and has a nice view (we stayed here when we first got to the Albuquerque area)

- West of the Rio Grande shows Downtown in the foreground. Pat Hurley park is multileveled, and includes a nice observation platform on the bluff

- Closer to the Rio Grande is Valle del Bosque (yes, a valley ;-) ).  So it is more difficult to get a clear shot of the mountains
