I know how hard it is to be in the wright place at the right time with the right camera and the right lens. The conflation of all those events, PLUS the presence of mind too know how to take the picture really blows my mind. Absolutely perfect.

We lived in Albuquerque in the early sixties, and I was often stunned by the beauty of the sky. This picture is incredible and the boy standing with his camera not only adds size,but a human factor as well. Beautiful!
