Description
While visiting the Sonoran Desert in Arizona I did a lot of driving around and exploring areas I hadn't seen before. One of these areas was Saguaro Lake and the Salt River Valley east of Phoenix. This particular photograph was taken close to the Water Users Recreation Site along the Salt River, and was digitally edited to create this beautiful painterly effect.
The desert vegetation has always captivated me and here the cholla, palo verde, shrubs, trees and hiking trail set off the dazzling red rock cliffs in the background, while the magnificent Saguaro cacti dot the field and hillside.

Of course I immediately gravitate to your digital paintings…..I can never get enough of them! The softness and lush greens of the bushes are magnificent, as is the lighting on the buttes beyond. Fav
