Beautiful, like a watercolor on canvas. Aloha
There is beauty in every part of the world..you and erskogly have capture both ends very well:):):):):)
What a gorgeous scenery! Man I love the desert so much!! The toning is also spot on here but the image is really too sharp once again and that makes it look of bad quality, with 'lil white spots and lots of grain! I wish it was softer! But a great shot nonetheless!
has a parched look... fitting, since it is desert :] ...& a very nice view showing the distant mountain range
Love your composition here Paul.The foreground is in wonderful contrast to the soft distant mountains.Love that lone tall cactus,too.Great job!-M :)
Very lovely and so different landscape. Love that cactus and the strange color grass. Excellent capture!!!
Wow what a wonderful depiction of the west! Lovely composition!

What a capture... :-) Love the grainy touch here - fits so very well to an old western-style-image. The desert is waiting..... :-) Great work on this, Paul! :-)
I had never heard of the 'Superstition mountains' - what a lovely name :-))

It is very impressive Paul!!! This valley seems to be endless so far away the mountains are!!! You captured everything so well and thank you for showing us this all. For a lot of us will that be the only way how we will ever see it!!!! Thanks for that!!!!
Very nice shot and treatment!
Ah, Arizona - spent two years in Tucson, recognize the cacti. Didn't spend much time in the upper part of the state tho - this is an excellent shot.
Also this photo shows a very very beautiful almost endless looking area! I like the lightning and the beautiful desert atmosphere! Bravo!!! V
Impressive capture with these remarkably desaturated colors!
