People of Arizona
Every once in a while, I'll find an opportunity to
capture some people of Arizona being themselves.
Must be someone's birthday -
Happy Birthday little guy!
Ocotillo
One of the most fascinating plants of the desert is the ocotillo
American Spanish: [okoˈtiʝo]
Ocotillo is not a true cactus. For much of the year,
the plant appears to be an arrangement of large spiny dead sticks,
although closer examination reveals that the stems are partly green.
With rainfall, the plant quickly becomes lush with
small ovate leaves, which may remain for weeks or even months.
It will bloom bright crimson flowers in spring and summer
after more rains at the top of each 'stick'.
Desert Sunsets
A couple watching the sunset on a gorgeous evening
at Papago Park
The beauty of the desert takes a while
to grow on a person - but it's new and can be exciting
if you're patient and watchful!

Evening's Peace
Evening's Peace
There's nothing like a walk in the evening
when the air is cooling, the sun is setting.
When I saw how this captured,
it made me feel peaceful.
Hole in the Rock
Papago Park is famous for it's
mountain "Hole in the Rock"
Here, a couple embraces
after having climbed on top
of the mountain.
The mighty Saguaro Cactus:
sometimes the arms become
gnarled with age --
and make interesting shapes!
This one looked like a
giant hand to me.
