Desert Spoon on Nature's Table | [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ] |
This is another cool desert plant called the
Desert Spoon or Sotol. I found it growing above 5,000
feet, right here outside Payson, AZ. It's symetry is
amazing, and it usually grows on south-facing
cliff-sides where there's plenty of sun. This one
was growing beneath a tower of granite in the
"The Boulders" area of central Arizona. (May 5, 2008)
I hope it was as good for you as it was for me! :) Comments[ Post a Comment ] | rdmc | Beautiful shot... | |

within a few more weeks. Best regards!! | | Posted May 7, 2008 11:32 pm |

Voted 10/10 | Never seen granite so pink. Is it the time of the day that makes it that color, or may be when it's wet?
An incredible shot. | | Posted Sep 5, 2008 3:45 pm |

Hasn't voted | Thanks! Sandstone appears brighter when wet
in the Sedona area. Granite depends on
composition, time of day and how much I
messed around with it in the photo editor.
Thanks again for the kind words, and best of
luck on your outdoor endeavers!
