Afternoon in Rio Rancho

During the last 3 nights, the sky in NM is smokey due to the fire in AZ state. You can even smell the smoke in the afternoon. I'm sure if the fire is already contained but yesterday when we stepped out the house this is what we saw. It was around 6pm and the sun color is red-orange. I thought it's the moon, silly me!
I grabbed my SLR using 55mm lens this is what I captured.Sorry my watermark is out of place
I am thinking to get a 300mm lens! In case I will photograph long distance subject.

Anyway, our unpacking/organizing is almost done. My next project is to look for a driving class as I can't be lazy to take driving or I will walk in the middle of the desert to go to work or stores.

  3. The AZ Wallow Fire is giving us this lovely smoke, and it's far from contained.

  4. Hi Greg, I hope they will be able to contain the fire as soon as possible. It gives us beautiful smokey sunset, however I feel bad for the people and animals affected by the fire.
