Here are just a tiny few of the digital images I've shot this week in New Mexico's low light--early and late in the day.
Pintails at dawn over Bosque del Apache NWR.
At dawn the birders and photographers gather on the Flight Deck for the morning fly out of the cranes and waterfowl.

Phragmites is an invasive scourge, but its heads look feathery in the afternoon sunlight.
Sunset uses the same pink paintbrush on the desert and the mountains.
A drake pintail in the predawn glow.
Cranes are still flying well after sunset.
A Chihuahuan raven croaks at its flockmates.
Coots a half hour before first light.

Major case of light envy here.
great shots!
Bill,
What beautiful photos. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the pintails over pink clouds. But the rest of them are all equally exquisite. Glad you're all enjoying yourselves out there!
Nice photos, it is really interesting to see the variety of affects created by the light.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family ! Many thanks for all that you share with us in the photos, good writing, and humor at BOTB. Borrowing from a noted wordsmith, this blog is OSSUM !
Bill...You have caught some wonderous pictures. I can see why you go out pre dawn and stay till late, to see every bit of beauty, with the changing scenes and light.
Some favorites...a pre-dawn blizzard of snow geese, cranes are still flying well after sunset, morning sun peeks and pintails over pink clouds.
A Happy Thanksgiving to your family.
