You are right there is plenty of tan and brown and a little green here and there. Unfortunately where I live is between two Indian reservations and not the prettiest place in AZ. Makes me appreciate other desert areas and the mountains.

"tan, brown and green"...sounds like matching colors to me
:cry I feel your pain
I live in the heart of Hollywood and have to travel for miles just to capture these beauties.
Concrete and asphalt don't really appeal to me that much anymore:D
