Another walk into the unknown. All the trees surrounding me in this somewhat secluded park led me deep into the forest, the fogginess creating such a mysterious, fantastical feel. I decided to play around with the layers, creating a lighter effect and shifting various layers around to give a blurry, faded light effect.
It's all about perspective. We can presume that we're heading towards a dead end or we're sailing onwards into infinity.
Sandia Mountains Part II: A breathtaking vantage point of the Albuquerque desert and city view from the Sandia tramway as we descend down during the twilight hour.
From this level, we have visibility into more than just the city--the outside landscape can be seen from the distance, creating a birds-eye perspective of the New Mexico area.

Sandia Mountains Part I: The best time to descend from the Sandia Peak? Right around sunset, as the sky jumps from sunset to twilight, into dusk.
It was quite an impressive scene going from 10,000 feet above sea level to 4,000 feet in a tramway, catching the scatters of lights, colors, and changes in terrain as we navigate rocky mountains of all shapes and textures to the desert and cityscape views.
Can't help but admire this marvelous lights event in downtown San Francisco, with illuminating lights shining bright across numerous famous buildings in the city.
Each building features striking digital art ranging from 5 to 10 minutes long from a diverse range of artists. I particularly loved this one at the Pacific Coast Stock Exchange building. Saturated colors in a fun gradient and sparkling background shine across all the columns and exteriors, ranging from turquoise, magenta, and midnight blue shades, creating a truly transcendent experience.
Filoli Gardens Part I: Rustic shades of orange, red, and muted green uplifts these trees at the famous garden on the mountains. With a mix of holiday lights, decor, and bright trees surrounding the area, it's the perfect way to celebrate the in-between seasons.
