Cactus Sunset in Tucson - a photo on Flickriver

            We were staying at a bed and breakfast in the far reaches of Tucson, Arizona, not far from the Santa Catalina mountains. There has been a cloud cover during the afternoon but our host said that would result in a really nice sunset. The edge of the clouds was just about overhead so we had a clear view of the sun. I set up to get an image of this saguaro cactus against the clouds and sunset and waited. I was richly rewarded with an image that reminded of some I've seen in Arizona Highways.
