December Sunset
One more sunset before Solstice. Tomorrow night will mark the transition into winter. Note how far south the sun is now, compared to the summer sunset photos.

Rose Hips: Autumn Beauty
Rose Hips

Peach ‘Bonanza’ in Fall
Peach ‘Bonanza’
The dwarf peach ‘Bonanza’ is a beautiful little tree in spring, summer, and winter; but it is not usually known for its colors in the fall, at least in the desert Southwest. This fall has proven to be spectacular, as has the little dwarf peach, ‘Bonanza.’

Fall Thunderstorm Moving In at Sunset
Thunderstorm arriving at sunset
Summer monsoon storms usually arrive from the west. This fall thunderstorm (dark cloud overhead) came in from the northeast, leaving a beautiful sunset followed by a LOUD thunderstorm and not too much rain.
