The ancient Pima Indians of Arizona's Sonoran desert believed that the giant saguaros were sentinels guarding their community, the spiritual embodiment of the souls of their dead warriors.

Steve I like the shot. But there appears to be someting funny going on around the edges of the cactus. Is that a result of movement over multiple images?


2 Samuel 9:7-8, "So David said to him, “Do not fear, for I will surely show you kindness for Jonathan your father’s sake, and will restore to you all the land of Saul your grandfather; and you shall eat bread at my table continually.” Then he bowed himself, and said, “What is your servant, that you should look upon such a dead dog as I?”

Beautiful! The colors are what first attracted me, but as I looked more closely at the photo, there's a lot of detail there. Nice job!

Nice colors and FG detail but the outline of the cactus doesn't look right to me.

Photographs are records of life. Pity they don't make music when you put them in a record player. :p
