Red rock...beautifully textured, wonderful red rock...not a sight you see in limestone-laden TX and one I can't get enough of when I head to your neck of the woods, Tom! Love the pov and the perfectly placed tree in the b/g against the blue sky - perfect complement to yes, the BEAUTIFUL red rock! :) #9469147

Thanks, so much, Tammy, Sabrina, and Val, for your wonderful comments. I'm on the road today and will look into all of your lovely galleries when I get back home and have some time! Thanks again! #9469658

I agree with Val, Tom! This is a beautiful image. Love your composition. The placement of the tree is just perfect, and the complimentary colors are magnificent. Gorgeous! Deb #9492191

Thanks, Deb! This place in southwestern NM provides an endless array of angles and shapes. And one can camp there, so early and late light is not a problem capturing! #9493216

Great shot Tom. I just came back from a three day photo trip to south and central NM a couple weeks ago and missed this place. Will need to catch it on another trip. Where is it located close to? #9495375

Thomas E. Hinds June 29, 2011

Thanks, Mike! City Of Rocks State Park is located about twenty five miles south of Silver City just off US180. Too hot for comfort in June, July, and August. Hope you get there sometime. I like it in the winter. The light is great and usually the weather is not too cold (though it can be pretty cold at times). #9495727

Thanks Tom - Sounds like an early spring / late fall trip. I try to get over to NM about 2-3 times a year from the Fort Worth area and this looks like an intresting place. #9495821
