The Lumix Years - 2023 |
|
||
|
||||
Sunset through an evening rain shower lights Ragged Top in Ironwood Forest National Monument, Arizona |
||||
An Arizona sunset looks like an upside down picture of a sea of molten lava. |
||||
Barbed wire and snow aren't enough to discourage this playful alpaca. |
||||
A long-dead saguaro seems to be trying to catch the gibbous moon. |
||||
California poppy seeds lie dormant on the ground until the spring rain breathes life into them again. |
||||
It no longer burns coal but Engine 315 of the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad still carries the load. |
||||
Rain isn't common in the desert but the sun is, so rainbows are a common sight. |
||||
January brings a layer of tiny green plants to Ironwood Forest National Monument. |
||||
These blue wildflowers from Arizona have the unfortunate name of Bluedicks. |
||||
A peaceful tarn in the Little Flattops Mountains of Colorado grows flowers almost as tall as I am. |
||||
A few spring rains bring a colorful carpet of small wildflowers to the Arizona desert. |
||||
Ragged Top, at the center of Ironwood, is an extinct volcano weathered down to a series of cliffs. |
||||
The view to the north reveals another typically colorful Arizona sunset. |
||||
Aspens in a variety of colors create a mosaic on a New Mexico mountainside. |
||||
And as the sun sinks in the west, we bid a fond adieu to the glorious colors of the Arizona desert. |
