Safari – Superstition Mountains – Arizona Landscape Photographer
Posted by Chris H. on June 24, 2009
A few days ago, I jumped in the car and headed east into the Superstition Mountains for a quick photo safari. It never ceases to amaze me that within a 20 or 30 minute drive from home I can be in wilderness. Because I was out at the end of the day on a weekday, nobody else was around. So I was often able to stop in the middle of the road, sometimes for several minutes, to get a shot. I saw a ton of wildlife – quail, a snake crossing the road, a group of turkey vultures clustered on the asphalt, desert hares, lizards and a bunch of birds whose names I don’t know. The views both to the east and the west were spectacular. It was a well-spent couple of hours – complete catharsis. Here are a couple of images:
