Photo: Prickly Pear Cactus Buds

I liked the red square geometric background of the windows of the Paradise Valley Fire Station to provide a contrasting background for the green curving shape of these buds sprouting from the tope of a prickly pear cactus.

This is another of those scenes that one would probably not notice without a camera to cause one to look for opportunities for a juxtaposition with which to compose a photo.

We we have photos of the bottom of the Grand Canyon this week on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

    I am really enjoying the theme/design of your web site. Do you ever run into any browser compatibility
    issues? A handful of my blog readers have complained about my website not working correctly in Explorer but
    looks great in Firefox. Do you have any advice to help fix
    this problem?

    You can't just eat what you want, exercise your bum off and expect
    to get great abs. It's about total body fitness and changing your overall diet.
    This can spoil all of your tough operate inside a second as the body will absorb every thing you consume much more properly
    than usual.
