Deserts and Beyond

Deserts and beyond...places in and around the southern California deserts and beyond. Photo taken at Canyon Lake, in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona, December 2011. A few minutes later, after the sun disappeared, these cliffs were their normal color. They were only golden for a short time and I'm glad we were able to view them in their glory.

Tree and sunset~First of the Month~120111

As I was driving home the other afternoon, it got dark early because of all the clouds.  I pulled over to see my favorite tree off one of the freeway exits.  There used to be a red ranch there, but it was demolished and bulldozed about a year ago.  All that is left is this tree and another one which has been severely cut.  I noticed two different bird nests high up in this one.  First of the Month for December, 2011.

A magnificent tree. Too bad about the ranch.
