"There can be only one".. These two giants faced each other in an epic battle and at the end only one stood still... just kidding! Instead the fallen one may have lost his battle against the wind... Arizona is a beautiful place look all that desert..

Hello Everton,
a beautiful landscape showing well the desert, is it a Cactus Saguaro fallen? good sharpness and bright colours in a nice composition.
TFS
Best regards

Hi,

poor plant, is these Suguaro cactus? oh, I see someone already asked:)
I had some seed straight from Arizona desert but none of them growth...
Interesting shot

Cheers
Adrian

Hola Everton.
Bella foto de estos "Cactus" Plantas exclusivas del hermoso desierto las cuales pueden sobrevivir a climas extremosos y de muy poca humedad. Son muy bellos por cierto y en ocaciones las aves hacen su nido en el tallo.
Saludos
Luis52.

Hello Everton,
This is one plant that always gets my attention whenever I'm in the Phoenix area. The Saguaro is an amazing looking cactus to say the least.
I like your composition and POV. Very nice detail and great desert colors!!

Hello Everton,
A fine capture of the life and death of a Saguaro cactus. The composition showing the healthy upright one against the fallen one is great against the natural environment BG.
Thanks and have a good weekend,
Ivan

Bonito documento de un cactus que aquí desconocemos al natural. Bien recogido el ambiente que lo rodea.
Un saludo Everton: Josep Ignasi.
