I took this photo to show the Saguaro cactus but also the sunset behind it. I feel like this photo shows the rarity of Saguaro Cactuses while also showing the beauty of Arizona's Desert and the sunsets here in Tucson.

I also took this photo at Home Depot, however I also felt that this photo also really represents Arizona, because Arizona is known for the outdoors, and this flower is really pretty, and it to me represents the beauty of Arizona.

I took this photo while I was at Home Depot, and I couldn't stop but wonder, "this looks like some beautiful flowers!" This to me represents Arizona because Arizona is known for its nature, like hiking, and flowers, and the outdoors, and this flower looked like something you would possibly find hiking outside, which Arizona is known for.

I went for an evening run and it had just rained so the colors were absolutely beautiful and I love how I could see the sunset but the mountains are receiving the rain in the background and the cactus tied it together with it’s beautiful colors popping out.

I went for a ride one evening and noticed that there was a beautiful sunset and wanted to capture it. I set up my phone on a tree branch and set a time for 10 seconds and got on my horse and started to ride away.
