Phoenix has it's own version of Wildlife. Some people find it beautiful, some find it rather ugly. I grew up there, so there is a genuine fondness that I hold for it, and something about it just spells the word "Home" to me...

This is a nature preserve close to where I grew up. It's got lots of good wildlife in it, some gorgeous flowers and trees at the right times of the year. I'm not very good with flowers... but I did manage to capture this tree...

Try some more snowy pictures on for size! We're still in the White Mountains of Arizona. Here is a close up of the frozen scrub that normally covers the ground up there...

Some baby pine trees. (Believe it or now, Arizona actually has the biggest Ponderosa Pine Tree forest in all of North America. It's got a little bit of everything!)

Bigger tree... and even bigger(er) sky!!

So it's been a while since I've posted. But, while I have been very busy, I still have felt a longing to get some more photography up on the ol' blog. So with enough inspiration from wife.... here we go!!

This is Arizona - believe it or not - It's in the gorgeous area of the White Mountains and is absolutely pristine when covered with snow..... as opposed to still being pristine when....not...covered....in.....snow..... *ahem*

More to come!!
