Siren Song

Siren Song

"If I seek in every corner, If I search in every doorway, When the water turns to wine will I believe? If I navigate the river, Would you take me to your island? Sing a siren song so I can never leave ..." Courthouse Butte rises over acres of slickrock, radiating from the east side of Arizona's Cathedral Rock. August 4, 2010

Spectacular Color

Everytime I'm out and see wildflowers, I try taking a few pics of them for you but the last ones didn't come out too great. Maybe next time. There's still plenty of flowers up high and I'm heading back to the Tetons the next few weekends.

I like this photo

Especially contrast between green trees and dry, red rock.

Re: I like this photo

Thanks, Konrad!

Chain of events:

(1) The water runs off the dry rock into Oak Creek!

(2) Oak Creek flows into the Verde River.

(3) The Verde River flows into the Salt River.

(4) The Salt River flows into the Gila River.

(5) The Gila River flows into the Lower Colorado River.

(6) The Lower Colorado River flows into the
Gulf of California.

Re: wow

Thanks, Roy!

My point is; everything is connected!

Colors are hocus pocus! The reality lies in
how strong we view our connection to the
Earth.

Re: Beautiful View

Thank you, Karrar ..

Please note how the "monsoonal rains" have
intensified the colours.

At the same time, making the desert's
vegetation comfortably happy and green!
