All of these photos were taken between May 15, 2007
and May 17, 2007 when I went to visit relatives in Tucson,
Arizona. I was awestruck by the vastness of the desert
wasteland. As someone who has lived in Michigan all of my life, I
had never before seen
anything quite like it! I was also fascinated by the
vegetation that dotted the nearly empty landscapes.
