Evergreen Elm Silhouette against the sunset

Monsoon Clouds at sunset

A second stab at HDR, three exposures combined, plus twenty-three adjustment layers and several hours of fine tuning.

 

Although the stalks and stems are inedible, the fruit and flowers of the exotic Air-Berry Bush simply melt in one's mouth.

In the large view, the Andromeda Galaxy is plainly visible, although partly obscured by cloud. The patch of light on the corner of the mountain is provided by the moon.

 

EXIF data:

 

exposure: 18 sec

aperture: f 3.5

focal length: 18 mm

The view here is from the Luhrs Tower at First Avenue and Jefferson.

Seen near Page, AZ, when driving on Arizona State Route 98.

Thank you for your visits / comments / faves!

This is just outside the Towers Jail. Perhaps the location is why the gap in the clouds at the front of this scene reminds me of an old-fashioned skeleton-key key hole.

No wonder the sky was a bit confused about what color to be - this photo was taken almost exactly one year after Bowbow, the sweetest dog on Flickr, passed on to the next dimension. Words cannot express how much I miss her still.

Sunset arrives just a bit later each day. Hurray!

A nice thunderstorm popped up out over the White Tank Mountains, making this a sunset to remember! Taken from the foothills of South Mountain Park, Phoenix, Arizona.

Thanx, Mark and Andrew and 1Sock and Poly-mnia and Wicker-Man and sabine_jaki and winklerw for your kind comments and faves. And Tina Owens -- Wow, I'm blushing all over from your extraordinary praise. Thank you kindly, and I hope you'll take a look at some of my other sunset shots.

Steele Indian School Park, Phoenix, Arizona - May 8, 2012

Sunrise unevenly illuminates Camelback Mountain as viewed from the boundary between Phoenix and Paradise Valley.

It slimes all in its path! Behold! The Mighty Cloud Worm of Oborous!

This was the best sunrise I've ever seen. I have many more pix still to post from this particular shoot, late July 2009 at South Mountain.

This is just outside the Towers Jail on Durango Road, Phoenix.

. . . But, alas, Juliet Is In The West .. because it's ... like ... sunset, not ... you know ... sunrise.

 

(In the actual drama, Romeo refers to "yonder window" as the East, but then, Romeo wasn't supposed to talk like a valley dude either, methinks).

 

This is the view from part-way up South Mountain, looking north and east. Camelback Mountain is to the north and just to the left of "yonder balcony."

This is downtown Phoenix, looking west, as seen from the top of a parking garage on the east edge of downtown Washington Street. Sunset, December 2, 2007.

Arizona monsoon cloud with lightning striking the beautiful Sonoran desert in North Scottsdale.

 

This striking photograph captures a powerful monsoon thunderstorm lighting up the desert sky in Arizona. Towering cumulonimbus clouds dominate the frame, glowing with the energy of lightning strikes within.

 

The foreground features classic Sonoran Desert elements saguaro cacti and scrubland anchoring the dramatic scene in a rugged, natural beauty. The image freezes a fleeting moment of raw weather intensity and serene desert stillness.

I've been trolling through old photos lately and I think this was one of the most photogenic storms I've ever seen.

In order of their time of prominence: the sun, the church, the state and telecomuunications.

Sunset at Steele Indian School Park in uptown Phoenix, Arizona

Sanguine is my favorite word. It can mean agreeable or amenable but also can mean bloody, depending on context.

Sunset on February 8, 2008: In a weird case of cloud-imitating-still-life, a sleeping-camel-shaped cloud parked itself right along side Camelback Mountain while a full moon rose above both pretend-sleeping-pretend-dromedaries.

Steele Indian School Park, on 8/31/9, about a half hour before thunderstorms swept through Phoenix

Steele Indian School Park; November 17, 2008.

A leprechaun suffered serious injuries when a rainbow collapsed, landing forcefully on top of this mountain near Florence, Arizona, in early February 2008. Paramedics from the Florence Fire Department later told reporters that while in a delerium, the leprechaun promised them a pot of gold, saying that they "had earned it fair and square." Although rescuers searched the immediate vicinity, no gold or cooking utensils were found.
