Tubac Arizona
On my recent trip to the Southwest, I noticed one big difference between Arizona and Wisconsin. Summed up in one word – SUN! The sun seems to shine all the time. Now I know that is an exaggeration. We actually had one day (out of ten) that was cloudy and we did get caught in a rain shower. But for the most part, the sun was shining in that big, bright blue sky.
The sun makes for some great photo opportunities of shadow play. This adobe building not only had strong shadows from the wooden ramada, but also had more subtle shadows from a nearby palo verde tree.
I’ve really enjoyed the photos from this trip. Made me want to go a-travelling…

I remember seeing the sun, I lived in Arizona as a child. Yep I remember seeing the sun back then.
The adobe shadows are intriguing and you captured them well.

Fantastic! Love the graphic simplicity of this..and the shadows. Yes!! Here at this time of year it feels as if sun is missing…

I so love your pics of the Southwest. I have this theory that your eye sees things the rest of us take for granted.
