Sunset in the Sonoran Desert in southern Arizona where The giant Saguaro Cactus grows, These tree like cactus live to be over 150 years old, and can take up 75 years to grow an arm, and can grow to a height of 15 to 50 feet.  The Saguaro blooms at night, with white and yellow flowers, primarily from April to June.  The flowers remain open and bloom into the morning, then close by about noon, never to open again.  Bats are one of the primary pollinators of the Saguaro, along with the whitewing dove.  Saguaro is an Indian word, the correct pronunciation is “sah-wah-ro” or “suh-wah-ro.”

Great Places for Great Photos

 

Let me help you to find a great location for your next photography adventure.  I will list many lesser-known destinations, as well as the famous "Icon Locations" for photography.  I will provide photos (Lots of Photos), location information, consisting of what there is to photograph as well as other information about the destination.  I will give costs, maps, directions, contact information, and other essential information for a successful photo trip.  I will only post for locations that I have personally photographed to ensure a quality guide to great locations for photography. If you know of great places that are not posted, please send me the details, I may just decide that is a place I need to go!
