Moonrise over Rio Grande Cliffs, Caballo Lake State Park, NM, May 4, 2012
Practice, practice
This was taken the night of May 4, 2012, the night before the big moonrise of the year everyone was so eager to capture. Back on my post after that big night I indicated I hoped I got a few interesting shots of the moonrise and I'd like to think I did. Tomorrow I'll start posting a short series of my favorites here as I wander eastward toward Red Rock.

Few genes are required
One's brain is powerfully activated by learning that there are only 30,000 genes in the human genome. That is only twice as many as in the fruit fly, not renowned for its calculating ability, and about as many as a garden weed. Geneticists are sorely vexed that so few genes are required to make something as complex and clever as a geneticist.
