Great shots. The surroundings look a lot more green than I remember but the last time I was in the parks was in September and obviously, things looked a lot more arid.

Nicely done, David. The first photo is a keeper for sure, but all three are great.

I also like the first one.  Its colors and the way the sky is layered are both quite good.

Francois, the desert is really green these days from lots of rain. Flowers too.
Tuco, do you mean that purple staghorn cactus?

Yes, though the (flower) show for those just ended already since I wrote that.  Desert is rapidly drying out with the warmth and winds.
