Description
I must have taken 25 shots of the sky today but this was this one stood out as my favorite. From my front yard in Vail, Arizona, I can see the distant Tucson mountains to the west. Behind that range is Tucson Mountain Park, Old Tucson Movie Studios, The Sonoran desert Museum, and Saguaro National Park West. All those places are special to me. Also of note, this is as far as the sun travels north, soon it will start heading south as it travels to fall and eventually far south of here in winter! Taken June 24th, 2015.

great sunset capture over the Tucson Mountains, Jerry! The Tucson Mountains inspires such curiosity to me - the shape of the peaks have always made me think they look like they are on the moon or Mars for some reason.
