 This picture was taken on a Gondola Ride where I bravely hid behind my camera as I watch the ride up to Sandia Peak. The last time I took this particular trip, I watched the floor of the Gondola the entire time. But I can be VERY brave behind a camera.

Now, can't say I was so brave on the way back. It was too dark to shoot so I again watched the floor while my husband laughed at me. It was a glorious trip and a fabulous but very cold hike. We had a wonderful time watching the Balloon Glow from up there the second time we went.

The lighting goes a long way to show off the excellent fractal forms here.

a little bland...looks like dirt to me...contrast has taken away detail and there's not really anything to focus on
