Early in January, we visited Bosque del Apache Wildlife Refuge to do some birding and some photography. At the end of our first day, we had some spectacular clouds that were lit up by the setting sun.
The main pond generally has many ducks and geese that I had photographed earlier in the day. However, after the sun had set, I captured this pair of trees that were reflected in the water.
During our early morning outing the next day, we found a group of Javalina foraging along the roadside. I captured an image of one Javalina as it was working along the roadside.
Close by, there were some grasses at the roadside. The sun had not yet lit up the grasses, so I captured this following image that was converted to monochrome black and white.
As a panned across the grasses, without refocusing the lens, I found some more grasses in a pleasing composition. That I also converted to monochrome.
I decided to post these images before January came to a close!
