Golden Dawn on the Rio Grande
"In the desert southwest, the river is a life giving source for farmers and residents."
This one I have entitled this "Golden Dawn on the Rio Grande." In the desert southwest, the river is a life giving source for farmers and residents. The river is often entitled "The Rio Sand" as it goes dry for months at a time. During the summer irrigation season, New Mexico sends water down from reservoirs to irrigate both in southern New Mexico and Texas. As one can imagine, there are constant disputes about the amount being distributed. Mexico must receive her fair share as well. On an early morning walk, I captured this sunrise reflecting off the water in the rio. A brilliant morning like this shouts the magnificence of God's creations.
