Beautiful light on this wonderfully colored cactus, Patricia! I was out camping in the Utah desert on Easter, but it was too early for cactus flowers there. #10640262Patricia A. Casey April 03, 2013
Yes..it all depends....parts of Utah are higher than the Phoenix, AZ area....so maybe May and June when their flowers start....Thank you for viewing and your kinds words...... #10640419Dee Langevin April 03, 2013

I agree with Nadia. This is excellent! The darkness gives me a sense of density as it we were viewing this in the moonlight. It's a very special image!-Laura :D
