The conclusion of another eastern New Mexico chase day, this time south of Tucumcari, led us again down a road we had used before for sunset photography. This time, the best views were first east, as here with a well-lit landscape under soft, smoky-orange mammatus and anvil cirrus, then west-northwest. As the sun angle lowered, the opposite side of the sky lit up with fantastic depth and brilliance.
