2020-12-13-4:55 pm: Blood red sunset on Sangre de Cristos east of Santa Fe
The lights of the setting sun give the Sangre de Cristo Mountains a blood red color while the foothills are falling in the darkness. The sun is only reaching the top of Tesuque Peak and the slopes of the Santa Fe ski resort. The Sangre de Cristo Mountains got their name from the colors the setting sun gives them. The next two images, taken a few minutes apart, show how quickly the light changes in the Santa Fe sky.
