Images from the area around Phoenix, Arizona

Metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona has some beautiful open spaces around it. For instance, South Mountain Park, where many of these images were made, is the largest metropolitan park in the United States, and boasts some lovely Saguaro Cacti, rugged mountains, and an abundance of wildlife. Combine all of this with classic fiery Arizona sunsets, and its a photographer's paradise. Read blog posts about the making of some of these images here and here.
