I love them things

Saquaro's are just something so unique and special. Neat shot.

Re: I love them things

Right on, Dean!

This is back when I was wandering around
in AZ's "outback." I was by myself, so I had to set the camera down on a flat rock and set the timer. (This Saguaro managed to survive a recent "flash flood.")

The rock that the camera was sitting on was
not "perfectly" flat. On my final attempt to
ADJUST the camera, I almost tripped over a
rattlesnake.

The locals HERE call them "snazzle-rakes!"

As always, Larry :)

That is a huge cactus!
I have always wanted to plant some desert spiky plants in my yard, but my mom does not like cacti! :(
Great shot!

Re: cactus

Well ... sometimes it's hard to understand
why grown-ups don't like things, but the
time will come when you have your own space to take care of and admire.

Have a great upcoming weekend !!!

Larry : )
