In Cave Creek Canyon



Here are two photographs from inside Cave Creek Canyon.  This is a shot driving down the main road that comes from the Research Station where we stayed.  Interesting trees, and in the distance, the rugged eastern ridge of the canyon.


And this is a long exposure at night of the starry sky.  The ridge is illuminated by a setting crescent moon off to the right, outside the frame of the picture.  Please click on the photograph to enlarge it - the stars will be easier to see.
