It's almost been a year since we moved to the desert from the prairie. Here are some of my favorite photos from our time in eastern New Mexico, plus a photo from a road trip to California. Can you spot it?
Top row: Portales, New Mexico (just south of Clovis), and our old Clovis neighborhood with rooftops
Bottom row: Our old Clovis neighborhood again with rooftops, and Mojave Desert, California rest stop

Nice skies, Clair. I'd say the first one is from Clovis... because it's flat! :) The California one is either #3 or #4.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing #4.
I can't really tell which one is California, Clair, but they are all lovely. I love your sky pictures. I thought of you the other day when we had the rare occurence of lenticular clouds. Benjamin said they looked like video game clouds! :-)
ReplyDeleteNot sure which is California, but I do know they are all fantastic captures! Really stunning and breathtaking colors! Hope you have a wonderful weekend, Clair!!

Wow! spectacular views of beautiful sky.
ReplyDeleteI can see why they are among your favourites. Each one is very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAll of them are breathtaking, and the huge one is my guess for the road trip. It is lovely.
ReplyDeleteLovely......hmmm, #4 is the California tree??? It doesn't look like it's having to reach quite as high for the sunshine as the others. ;-) Could even be a bit windswept, i.e. by the ocean?
ReplyDeleteWonderful variety of colors in the skies...

Wonderful set of skies!
ReplyDeleteall 4 are great!!!
ReplyDeleteno clue on which one is the one from California :) hope you tell us.
greetings from Uruguay
Beautiful colors and captures. I have no idea where they are.
ReplyDeleteGood choice of pics for SkyWatch!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful skies but no, I can't tell which was shot in California.
ReplyDeleteSame here can't figure it, but your sky shots are fantastic!

so beautiful Martha....thank you for taking us through your lovely memories in this way!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing #4 is the road trip because I can see a vehicle.
ReplyDeleteHowever, they are beautiful sky photos. Good work.

For those who commented and made a guess about which photo was taken in California I have added locations above. If you guessed no. 4, you were right.
ReplyDeleteAfter living here in the Chihuahuan Desert, I found that I absolutely loved the Mojave Desert in California.
They are all beautiful.

Great collection. I love sunsets and sunrises.
ReplyDeleteYou are too tricky for me...or I'm just hopelessly Eastern-ized. They all look like they could be the same state...lovely, of course, but I couldn't even have made a wild guess as to which was CA! So sad...LT needs to take me out more. Have missed your pics! Good to be back!
ReplyDeleteExcellent collage skywatch Friday post.

What lovely skies - love the colours and silhouettes.
ReplyDeleteLovely collage! I think the California trip is photo #4.. as I can observe a car there.... :) Have a nice day!
ReplyDeleteExcellent collage! There's nothing quite like the wide expanse of prairie skies. I live in the prairie province of Alberta.
ReplyDeleteYou do seem to attract pretty sunsets wherever you go. That's a nice quality to have, whether living in prairie or desert!
ReplyDeleteThis really brings out just how different each sunset is. A great chronicle of the skies.
