Arizona

I was able to catch this scene while scouting a location for the next mornings shoot for a commercial client. With the sunrise striking the peaks and the saguaro in bloom it would be hard to find a more fitting iconic photograph of Arizona.

Single exposure 1/13 sec @ f/16, tripod.

Bob, That really is some beautiful light on those peaks. The golden glow looks wonderful against the blue sky and clouds. It sure does shout out "Arizona"

Lovely highlight on the peaks and beautiful sky. The blooming saguaros are a fine addition, nicely spaced. Will you hit triple digits today?

Definitely says, Arizona, Bob. Nice scene. The blooming saguaros are a real bonus.

Strong comp and gorgeous light Bob. I haven't been in Arizona in years but this certainly reflects what I remember. Very nice...

Looks great, Bob. The light was perfect, and you used it to your advantage. You might consider removing the prickly pear bits that are under your signature. Other than that, this looks real nice.

That warm soft light is gorgeous, Bob. An outstanding image that most definitely says Arizona. Might crop a smidgeon off the left hand side but really nice as is.
