This image was taken on Mt Lemmon one early morning in February when the milkyway was first visible before sunrise. I was actually with a client conducting a private workshop when we witnessed this scene after a 1 mile hike into the desert. The bright dot you see above the mountains is actually the moon rising with the milkyway which created a stunning composition!
Snow in the desert is one of my favorite things to shoot! We’ve been getting more snow than ever recently but usually this event happens once or twice every 3-5 years. I just loved this scene with sun hitting the Rincon Mountains with the leftover snow from that morning.
Hummingbird on Pentstemon flower I sat on a chair in a friends backyard. They live in a desert area and have lots of birds visit their yard filled with native plants. I saw this beautiful Mel Broadbilled hummingbird fly in and got this lovely image.
I took this image while I was at Mesquite Valley growers. I live very close to the nursery and on that day it was late afternoon as the sun was setting. I had my camera with me with my macro lens as I walked by the cactus I noticed the sun was illuminating through the edges of the agave it created a beautiful hue of reds and yellows.
