Another richly coloured cactus. The scientist in me is interested in the genome of these lovely coloured cacti.

February in Arizona - quintessential desert shots of cactus, small mountains, and beautiful sunsets. This is all year round, but feels so bright and crisp in February!

Cactus Towers
Staying with the man made cactus landscapes a bit longer. I’m finding an affinity for photographing these prickly, uniquely desert plants.

What do you think of this colour? It almost looks like a juicy orange - just watch out for those thorns.

Rivers and Horses
February in Arizona is a great time to head out to the Salt River to see the gorgeous desert in bloom and perhaps catch a glimpse of wild horses.

While this was a man made field of cactus for sale at Home Depot, I loved the depth of all these prickly plants together. In nature they are a bit more scattered apart.

One of the things I enjoy about macrophotography (besides tiny details) is the dark backgrounds highlighting the subject. You’d never guess it was a bright area where the photo was taken.

Heading back to macro shots while I’m in between photo shoots. I am thoroughly enjoying summer flowers in winter while in Arizona. This lovely Lazy Susan just makes me smile. How about you?

Inspired by O’Keefe
I love the colours of these lily’s against the dark green background. It brings to mind the gorgeous paintings of Georgia O’Keefe.

Just in case I miss the Lunar Eclipse tomorrow morning (4:05-5:05 am MST), here’s a shot from last March 13’s eclipse. Head out tomorrow morning and enjoy - if you can pull yourself out of bed!

Goofballs
These funny donkeys are so fun! They see us walking down the road come running and braying at us - especially Betty White… if we don’t have treats for them, we try not to let them see us.
