Description
Good things come to those who wait, and this was one of those nice occasions. I had found a saguaro in Tucson Mountain Park west of Tucson, Arizona that made a powerful silhouette and wanted to photograph it with the sun setting alongside. The sun hid behind a low cloud until just moments before it reached the horizon when it shone its golden light straight across the valley and alongside the saguaro.
