This is a response to the idea in the subscriber's area to take photos of something from a different perspective. About the only way to photograph a Saguaro cactus is looking up at it. So--- here is my experiment.

This Saguaro lives in my front yard and is home to woodpeckers and cactus wrens. I keep hoping to catch a pic of one of the residents but I have yet to find anyone home or conveniently posing when I'm out with my camera.

Andie, that's a beauty! Both the cactus and the composit picture. Here in NM (at least my part) we have cacti but not Saguaros. I wish we did, because they are so spectacular! You should be very proud of that montage.

That's really great! You did a wonderful job of putting that all together. Nice shots too. Hopefully you will find a "resident" to snap a picture of too.

I really like this Andie!
By the way... I've been meaning to compliment you on the orb. I saw both versions of them. It almost feels like looking down onto a paperweight filled with water (the circle at the top would be the bubble). Very well done!

Andie, I noticed your cactus montage when I checked the galleries and was really impressed with it. It is a magical plant and you have put together a great montage.
