Not all good shots happen at dawn...
Survived the raft trip! On the last day of this short trip to Arizona, we spent a couple of hours in the Desert Botanical Gardens. Many different kinds of wildflowers were in bloom, the Chihuly glass exhibit was set up in the gardens, and the place wasn't too busy. I was lucky enough to find this small patch of young Saguaro cacti, backlit from the mid-morning sunshine.
