Dripping Springs Natural Area is just 10 miles from Las Cruces, and is a place to go for peace and birdsong and some pretty nice views.

As usual your photos are just beautiful. Have a good weekend. I know you are enjoying those new floors!
Nice view of the city. I miss being able to see long distances like that.
Looks like a great spot, Clair. Love your new header photo!
So lush! And what a beautiful sunset (sunrise?) at the top of the page!
Such beautiful blue skies, Clair! And as always your photos are superb! I do love your header -- speaking of glorious, that is indeed just that! Enjoy your day and hope you have a great weekend!

I love dripping springs - it is one of the most peaceful unexpected areas of the state!
Your photos are always so nice. I love what I call road trips. I need to take more of them.
Beautiful, very scenic place. The second shot is my favorite.
Such beautiful shots!

Wow...what a beautiful landscape!Great choice of photos for SWF!
Those stony outcrops on top of the mountains look great. And I like the leaves in the foreground.
Bellissime foto !

One of the things I like about living in the west, the land is not hidden by a blanket of green.
Your header is beautiful.
Beautiful sky shots, and I love the mountain views also!
I really like the terrain. The city is lovely with the mountains in the background. And I like the way you can see for miles.
Oh, those mountains that spring out of nowhere, and the city nestled at their foot.
Fantastic views & blues!!!
thanks for taking us on a road trip for some skywatching.
What a beautiful place! Great shots.
Lovely photos and mountains!! You have the flat landscape and the exciting mountains "coming up", it makes impressions! :)
Beautiful and interesting! Similar coloring to my local scenery, but your boulders and hills are shaped differently.
That does look lovely. Great shots!
It has been a long time since I was through this area. I believe it looks better now.
Nice road trip! Your header photo is great, too! Nice perspective on the winding road.
And the white specks of wildflowers on the roadside adds beauty to the landscape!
Wonderful photos, and the city sure has a beautiful backdrop when you look back at it. Super!!

I have always had a special liking for the kind of places you've displayed in your pictures... away from the world, peace & silence :-)
