After an adequate sum of rain glazes over Pinnacle Peak, a full rainbow appears. The rainbow can be described as very unobtrusive as the eyes move from right to left

I started photography just last year and my first time taking my camera out captured this shot of a little blue bird sitting on a branch staying warm during a late winter snow.

I took this picture on Friday, March 8, 2024, at 6:30pm. I was watching the sunset over Lake Pleasant at our campsite at Pleasant Harbor. It had just stopped raining and this picture provides so much beauty of the desert with the Saguaro, the lake and marina and the beautiful sunset for the close of a beautiful day.

I took this picture while I was camping with my family on Friday, March 8th, 2024 at 6:25pm. The rain had just stopped and I noticed a beautiful rainbow across from where we were setting up our camper at Pleasant Harbor for a short weekened camping. With the sun setting, the clouds still looking like rain will fall, there was a beautiful rainbow peeking out from the mountains.

This cow was just off of the road surrounded by many others. We pulled over and sat there for a few minutes just watching them eat and lay around. I was able to catch this cow swatting his tail at the flies around him.
