Greetings from San Cristobal, (Taos), NM. This week storms brought fabulous rain to our neck of the woods. The southern end of our rocky mountains looked like the first image on several occasions this week.
The monsoons continue. They began earlier this year. Some systems are specific, pouring on one side of the valleys and plateau while missing other areas entirely, I think the picture below indicates that is the case as a storm drops much-needed rain on the mountains and valleys.
Only two photos this week. I just finished working on the image below from a couple of months ago, taken from my favorite spot on the rim of the Rio Grande Gorge with the river and Ute Mountain. You know the one.
As always, thank you for looking and all the wonderful comments and compliments. Have a great week. G

Thanks for sharing these two amazing photos. No rain here in PNW – only dry lightning igniting way too many fires, too many lives at risk and more PCT closures for hikers to be aware of.
Other parts of US inundated with flood waters – such extremes in nature and politics – sigh

Generally the case everywhere. I’m looking for the small, individual changes for the better. Thanks, Mara. I hope you’re well. G
