Believe it or not, it looks just like a photo taken here in the country in western PA – right off our back yard deck. Sunsets are my favorite and this one is a beaut!
The colors are gorgeous, but I confess – I love seeing what I take to be saguaro cactus at the right side of the image. I’ve never seen one in real life, and I’m hoping one day to do so.
Such brilliant colors! There is not much that compares to watching the progression of a sunset while camping. Thanks for dusting this one off and sharing it.
Thanks, but even a blind squirrel can find a nut sometimes! We have hundreds of old slides to go through and we’ll see if there are any more good ones in them!
There is nothing like a desert sunset. Gorgeous color.

I remember many, many sunsets over the Arizona desert. I hope I will find more old photos that still show their beauty.

Yes, the tall one and the two shorter ones to the left of it are Saguaros. You will fall in love with them when you see them!
