desert evening...

It's been a good-and-wet monsoon season in Tucson so far...Last night was a break in the rain, so my wife and I went for a walk near Sabino Canyon--good to see the desert slopes so green, with water gushing out of the Santa Catalina Mountains... 

A few iphone-shots from last night:

...surveying the trails into Sabino Canyon...


...road to Bear Canyon, flooded...


...late summer wildflowers popping up...

...lots of grass shooting up among the prickly pear...

...an evening ride...

 ...a lone rain shower off to the south:

Really--I did not overly tweak the color in this shot;
I did play with 'ambiance' and 'drama' in order to 
brighten the foreground,
but the otherworldly clouds are REAL:

...sunset path...
