The Lumix Years - 2023

 

Columbine

 

Sunset through an evening rain shower lights Ragged Top in Ironwood Forest National Monument, Arizona

Arizona Sunset

An Arizona sunset looks like an upside down picture of a sea of molten lava.

Friendly Alpaca

Barbed wire and snow aren't enough to discourage this playful alpaca.

Dead Saguaro, Moon

A long-dead saguaro seems to be trying to catch the gibbous moon.

Arizona Wildflowers

California poppy seeds lie dormant on the ground until the spring rain breathes life into them again.

Steam Engine

It no longer burns coal but Engine 315 of the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad still carries the load.

Saguaros, Rainbow

Rain isn't common in the desert but the sun is, so rainbows are a common sight.

Ironwood

January brings a layer of tiny green plants to Ironwood Forest National Monument.

Blue Flowers

These blue wildflowers from Arizona have the unfortunate name of Bluedicks.

Flattops

A peaceful tarn in the Little Flattops Mountains of Colorado grows flowers almost as tall as I am.

Arizona Wildflowers

A few spring rains bring a colorful carpet of small wildflowers to the Arizona desert.

Ragged Top

Ragged Top, at the center of Ironwood, is an extinct volcano weathered down to a series of cliffs.

Sunset Colors In The Desert

The view to the north reveals another typically colorful Arizona sunset.

Fall Aspen

Aspens in a variety of colors create a mosaic on a New Mexico mountainside.

Another Sunset

And as the sun sinks in the west, we bid a fond adieu to the glorious colors of the Arizona desert.
