This view is from a trail which was a little easier than i expected - the rocky trail on the south side of the Boyce Thompson Arboretum in southern Arizona. Lots of cactus trees on this trail, and one or two nice views looking back along this modest looking gorge. 2017.
Visiting southern Arizona, i really wanted one those iconic sunset cactus tree shots. Alas, our driving plans meant that it didn't quite work out, and that once we were as far north as Flagstaff, they were nowhere to be seen! Nevertheless, a little tinkering with some filters and some textures, and I ended up with this image from the Boyce Thompson Arboretum. 2017.
This landscape image of the Boyce Thompson Arboretum was taken in the cactus tree park area; a bit more of an expansive landscape than the rest of the site. This meant that i got to break out the wide angle lens for this very typical western scene. 2017.
