I found this barrel cactus flowering during last summer's monsoon season at a place called Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge, which sits on the border with Mexico - southwest of Tucson, Arizona. The refuge itself largely consists of grasslands and rolling hills, border patrol
, and in the distance, the Baboquivari mountains.
At any rate, this is a 3 shot veritcal pano, stitched in LR using the new pano merge option.
Thought I would share something from my part of the world, comments and critiques welcome.
