Picnic During Sunset

Last night my husband and I had a very sweet date night. I made him dinner and then we went to Whole Foods and bought some wine and dessert. We had plans to go to a park right after we got everything but realized we had no wine opener, haha. So we headed back home and then to a park where we watched the sunset and enjoyed an evening together. :)

Arizona Fire Hits Albuquerque

This past week has been such a strange week. The smoke from the Arizona fire is blowing into Albuquerque and creating some weird but really neat scenery. I wish I would have gotten out more to capture the "red sun" but here is some interesting views of Albuquerque and the moon!

Now, one thing you must know about Albuquerque is that you can see across the entire city normally at night.

I remember the first night all the smoke blew into the city, I was thinking why does it smell like marshmallows and camp fires but look like I was in London fog? Then I was informed of the fire in AZ. Haha, I wish it was real fog in Albuquerque!

So I really don't have the right lens to take pictures of the moon but I did what I could with what I have.

It is one of my favorite types of graphic design work. So, in planning for one of my best friends bridal showers I designed these guys!
