While touring Saguaro Nat'l Park, Eastern Tier, I fell on this stunningly beautiful scene : Ocotillos and Beavertail cacti late in the day. K3 + DA 12-24 mm f/4 @ 15 mm FL and f/11.

Exceptional greenery. The bright green foliage shows nicely against the tan ground and the hazy background. Details are also very good. Overall, a very pretty scene.

The backlighting sun really makes that greenery glow!
That must have been around late winter for things to be so green.
Angky.

Thank you ! You can even notice my fingers holding my hat in the upper center of the picture ... lol ! I rarely bring my lens hoods while traveling and I use my left hand or my hat to shield the front of the lens from direct sunlight.

Regards
