This photo and Jim Rodgers will be at the Las Cruces Arts Gallery this Saturday from 10-2. His image was taken at City Of Rocks New Mexico State Park and he won first place in the New Mexico Magazine 2019 Contest. It was his great honor to win this prestigious award so the photo holds a special place in his heart. City Of Rocks is a wonderful location to photograph the Milky Way and Jim goes back every year during Milky Way season.
