Arizona Flora

I had never been to Arizona before; my first impression was it was very desolate. By the time I left I had fallen in love with the beauty of it. We left Phoenix early, and once we got past civilization we were treated to this beautiful desert sunrise. It is hard to capture the beauty of it in a photograph, but I have done my best.
I processed this in Photoshop with an assist from Dynamic Auto-Painter. I gently applied four textures.
Gonna be off for awhile, going elk hunting :) Happy photography to all my Flickr friends! This picture made the cover of the Nov/Dec issue of AAA Highroads magazine Arizona edition published 24 Oct 2014.
Named after its first postmaster, John S. Cochran, the small mining camp also served as a stop on the Santa Fe, Prescott and Phoenix Railway. The post office was established on January 3, 1905, and was discontinued on January 15, 1915. At its peak, the town was home to approximately one hundred residents, and housed a general store and a boardinghouse, among other establishments.[1]
Apart from a few building foundations in the town center, and the train tracks that still run by the edge of the now-abandoned town site, Cochran's last and most notable remains are a set of five largely intact beehive coke ovens across the Gila River at Butte, Arizona.
The ovens were used in the early 1900s to make coke, a clean-burning fuel used in blast furnaces to produce iron ore. Coke was made by baking a mixture of different kinds of coal at high temperature without contact with air.
A year and six trips finally made it and it was well worth it! Very scenic 4 whlr trip and very ruff to :) I used my trusty Canon 7d on this trip. There was too much dust, too many rocks and just didn't want to take a chance on ruining my 1D on this trip so the pictures aren't quite as good as they might have been.
Arizona. Tucson. Comment terminer ce voyage en Arizona sans l'irréductible coyote qui poursuit inlassablement le roadrunner de mon enfance. Still don't know if he will ever catch that roadrunner.
Arizona. Gilbert. Mon rêve était d'immortaliser cette espèce sur un bokeh doré. C'est donc un coup de coeur assuré. I really wished to shoot that elegant avocet on a creamy BG. So now, I am blessed.
Female. Early morning. My side yard. Southwest Arizona, USA.
Full frame. No crop. No post processing.

that part of Arizona between the north rim of the Grand Canyon and the Utah state line. Home to ranchers, Navajos, Paiutes, polygamists and other old-time wild cats. Set your clock back 150 years.
A CT-133 operated by the Arizona Aviation Heritage Group over the desert south of Buckeye, AZ. It wears the markings of the 161st Wing of the Arizona Air National Guard from the 1950s.
Shot during a Centre of Aviation Photography flight back in early November.
Bartlett Lake, Arizona. Classic because it includes many of the things people associate with Arizona:

Today again I felt liked planning a trip to the USA ... but times are not so, at the moment
