As a veil of rain moved across Tucson, Arizona at sunset, our neighborhood remained dry.

You got some great photos even if you didn't get any rain. I like the light in the corner of the last one. Street light?

the 4th picture looks like it is raining fire at the other side of the world, very beautiful. i usually noticed this kind of sky when we go to the desert here, they are dry but the West mountains gets rain and it looks so surreal. beautiful pictures Dianne. i love the sky.

Desert Greetings Diane,
I live just west of you in Yucca Valley, Ca. Glad to see I am not the only one who loves to take photographs of all the desert cacti.

I love your sky watch photos as well.

Wishing you a scent-sational day!
Patty

Hi Diane, you did a wonderful job of capturing that rain storm moving across that lovely evening sky... nicely done!

When I was a child we lived in Tucson and I remember the view of Mt. Lemon out our front window. Sweet memories, I love the dessert and all of it beauty :D

Your blog is wonderful Diane, thanks for sharing and I hope you have a delightful weekend...

i love the last photograph the most! the light in the corner made it more dramatic.

Diane while spending your Spring in AZ I saw these dramatic skies first hand! With such a BIG sky around you it feels so dramatic..like the sky is falling down..with the heaviness of those dark blanket-like clouds!
