Saguaro National Park, Arizona

Saguaro National Park, Tucson, Arizona.
There are two Saguaro National Parks, Saguaro West and Saguaro East, the East is also known as the Rincon Mountain District. The two are not very close together, they are on opposite sides of Tucson - I will let you guess the direction :). This photo is from the East District. I hear the West has better wildflowers right now, I’m going to check it out tomorrow. Gotta say, the East had way more color then I have even seen in my few visits - it was looking great.
It will be nice to have more Saguaro National Park photos.

Geez Ron, you have to be tired of looking at flowers by now!

nice backlighting Ron. I’ve never been there myself but it sure looks interesting.
You ever been down to Organ Pipe NM? seems like a diverse place. not only is there nature, but an opportunity to express your inner James Nachtwey.

Hi Carl,
You know in Seward I think we have mostly missed rain, not snow - that would have bummed me out!
Richard - I hit Organ Pipe during the 2005 bloom - it was really cool. The Arizona desert is really pretty with thanks to the plant life - mainly cactus.
Thanks guys!

Hi Özgür,
Great to hear from you! We are well, and enjoying the desert. It is very different here from Alaska, and the weather is very nice.
Thanks,
Ron
