Arizona
There are four distinct deserts in North America, the Sonoran, the Mojave, the Chihuahuan and the Great Basin. Southern Arizona is Sonoran desert with mild winters and rain fall in both winter and summer. The best know symbol of this region is the saguaro cactus (Cereus Giganteus).
The photograph show here is typical of what you will see in Pima County around Tucson. The photographer has captured a typical saguaro forest on a pleasant day. The colors are soft muted hues of green and gold with a cloud filled sky that gives the impression of a mild winter day. This shot appears to have been taken in the late afternoon.
This is a nice vista shot with interesting detail but may be lacking a strong focal point. The photographer may wish to consider using something such as the barrel cactus in the foreground as an anchor point for their image. Consider using a wide angle lens and getting down low with an interesting anchor up close with the vista in the background.
