the snow was forecast to be covering the foreground cacti. so dissappointing. Oh well....all I can do is be there...

George, are those saguaros? Furthermore, are they completely covering that hillside? Nice work here, the snow is something you don't probably see much of this far south. I like all of the elements working here, but the comp seems just a little busy. One thing I might suggest is cropping the image a bit left of center to only include the leftside saguaro, making a tall shot out of it, but you'd be losing a big part of the image. Just a thought...

The snow and the cacti make for an unexpected scene here George. I like it.

The cactus on the right seems to be hogging the show. Just too overpowering I think.

I like it, but I don't think it's your strongest image. The saguaro on the right is a bit dominant for my tastes, though it certainly says "desert". Looks like a great day to be out photographing!

I agree with Morris and Bret, the dark saguaro on the right hurts the composition, for me.

Very nice comp. I love the way the clouds are drifting around the mountains.
