Arizona Spring and Photoshop CS5
Just got back from a trip to Scottsdale to see family and a chance to enjoy some warmer weather. While down there, I had a chance to drive up to Bartlett Reservoir and photograph some of the Sonora Desert wildflowers that were in full bloom. Thanks to the Desert USA web site and their wildflower report, I would never have known to search this area. As it was, getting to Bartlett Reservoir was an hours drive form the family's place in Scottsdale. Bartlett Reservoir is approximately 20 miles east of Carefree, Arizona. A couple of morning visits and then an evening visit with the whole family produce a nice selection of images. The evening visit was particularly wonderful and one could not have asked for better weather. Here is a selection of some of those images.[slidepress gallery='arizona-spring']Also, these images were produced from a combination of Lightroom 3beta and Photoshop CS5 beta.
