Anticipation, Moonrise, Caballo Lake State Park, Caballo NM, May 5, 2012
Biggy
This was the biggy of the year, the annual full moon when the moon is closest to the earth. I took a bunch of pictures of the moon rising over the cliffs east of the Rio Grande here at the park. By moving around, side to side and forward and back, I was able to make this moonrise last and last, a good half hour. With some luck I got a few interesting enough to develop into a series. We shall see.

Our Peripheral Existence
Being a minority in both caste and class, we moved about anyway on the hem of life, struggling to consolidate our weaknesses and hang on, or to creep singly up into the major folds of the garment. Our peripheral existence, however, was something we had learned to deal with, probably because it was abstract.
The Bluest Eye, Toni Morrison
