The last saguaro cactus

I'd been meaning to photograph this scene for a couple of years and finally got around to it.

Soon to be replaced by a billboard, no doubt. This is an awesome image, Don. It's not what we usually see from you, but it has a strong William Eggleston feel to it. Hoping you do more like this.

oh wow, that looks so misplaced!

Very interesting image...

Thanks very much, Richard. I found myself thinking of Stephen Shore. A lot of my friends would think a shot like this is simply perverse but I'm drawn to this kind of thing.

Thanks, Denise.

I hadn't seen his work before, but I do see the resemblance. A little more saturated than I usually like, but fine work nevertheless.

I love the irony of this foto.
