    Afterwork Photo Session.

    When I left work today it was 72F. So I grabed my bike and camera and went for a solo ride. I played around with a little off the wall shots since I was alone.

    I think these came out well. (the Juniper is in bloom and driving my nose batty)

    Some More shots

    I converted the first one to b&w, but the sunset colors are too nice to get rid of, but the rider (real subject) stand out better.

    I got to the top and watched the sun set.

    then rode on. eventually I pulled out my light and road home in the dark.

    thanks for looking.

    Wow... I love that last one of the city lights and the bush. Then again, I just love the look of city lights, but this shot has a certain allure to it. It's kind of enchanting, you seem to be out and away from the city, simply looking down on it, but not involved. I also like the perspective of the bike in the other shots and I admire your patience.

    the last one did it

    Hopefully I can see that sight before the end of the year...close friends just moved and another friend is building a new house and invited us to check it out when it's done.

    I signed the petition to save Otero by the way....anytime the military/governement(especially in NM want to close off an area---it just has to make your eyebrows go up)

    great pics

    I rode around with the strap tightly around my wrist. THe shot of the wheel was rather tricky b/c I went through a rocky section with only one hand on the bar and only brake was the front. =)

    Do you see a big BUT coming?

    The Last One Is Nice...BUT, the shot of the bike on it's side and the tilted horizon is my favorite! They are all good, but I really like that shot.
