We have two back porches. The one in Idaho changes with the seasons. The one in Baja can change also, depending on the capricious winds.

Great, great photo. What is it about sunsets in the desert? You don't see the sky like that in most places.

If I ever learn where Ed lives, we're gonna tee-pee that place. :wings:
I'm diggin' Shontz's photo.
Funny, I took this photo last week because - dammit - my blessed Palo Verde tree (the Arizona state tree, dontcha know?) I planted when we moved in blew over in a windstorm last week. Broke the trunks and all. Pissed me off. Thus, a crappy ugly photo of my sadness.
I live in a high density area....

Ok, maybe not, but I came across that photo and it freaks people out sometimes. :)
Trees, trees and more trees. This is about 22 miles as the crow flies from SeaRubi's place

Thanks. One contributing factor is the dust in the air. The best sunsets usualy follow a windy day. When the air is loaded with dust you get some amazing, wide spread sunsets.:sombrero:
AHHH! I love the views in TUK SONE! My parents moved down there a couple of years ago from Southern Cal. I thought a view of the ocean with Catalina was pretty at the house I grew up in, but I've NEVER seen better sunsets than I have at their Tucson home. I love it!
As far as colors and odd views, snow everywhere, hail, the foothills get so green that it looks like hawaii until you focus your eyes and realize you are looking at saguaros!
Good stuff. Thanks for the shot. Now I want to go and visit them. Phoenix is great, but UGLY...
I think an object could make a sunset more pretty, say the pyramids, but as far as color. I love good ol tuk sonia!

Some of you all are incredibly talented with the camera. :clapsmile
I don't have a back porch. All I have in the back yard is...dirt. Apparently this little guy was ok with it though:

I'll have to try and get creative with something from the front porch.
Terry,
You have some really nice photos on your site!! I'm not much into fishing but you capture it well.

My front porch offers the better view. The back porch is just typical subdivison fare, so here is a shot off my FRONT porch.

When I summit Humphrey's this summer, I'll be sure to look south to see if I can spot your house :Wow1:
The place we're renting right now has a great back porch, facing lots of Ponderosa pines & national forest land (no houses in view!).
