We joined some friends, driving on highway 128 out of Moab, Utah. The river canyon offers spectacular scenery. As we walked from their hotel to the river, I saw this tree, lit up by the low sun. Grabbed an image with the phone, no processing except to lower the size. Looks nice on a black background.

We took a short hike from our motorhome, and found a geocache in the middle of the Arizona desert. (Our friends took a group hike and encountered rattlesnakes. We had a less-exciting walk.) Image processed with GIMP.

Taken just at sunset in Quartzsite, Arizona. Our motorhome is in the foreground, that of our friends is in the distance. We spent a week, camping with them (and 10's of thousands of others) in this beautiful desert area. Image processed with GIMP.

Taken in Quartzsite, Airzona, while we had our motorhome parked in the desert. We had some beautiful sunsets and evenings.

Taken at the Saguaro National Park, Tucson, Arizona. I used the Panasonic GX85. The wind was blowing all of these delicate wildflowers around. It was difficult to get a clear shot. Processed with GIMP. See: swansonphotos.com/saguaro

Goosenecks State Park in Utah is a remarkable place. In addition to the deep canyon, the desert area around is typically beautiful. I had several chances to get some photos of the wildflowers along the canyon rim.
