What an amazing set of photos. The ones of the planets are incredible.
The swirly clouds on Monday were fabulous they seemed to zoom around in the sky. I took a photo of them just pointing and clicking into the sun. When I later looked at the photo I was so amazed.
I tried to see the planets but I either was too early or too late.
Your photos are always so wonderful.

Lovely series of sky shots! I love the birds and the cactus. And the moon shot is awesome. Well done, happy skywatching!
This is a great variety of beautiful skies Diane, each one a treat for the eyes.
Those planetary pictures are outstanding. The agave stalk is very sentimental for me. I did my senior thesis on the uses of agave by the southwestern natives in the 19th century.
So peaceful, so lovely.
What a thrill, seeing the three planets. And great desert shots.
ah, that dove on saguaro blossom is just super lovely, though love all your shots.
Incredible detail on that last moon shot. Beautiful photography.
What a lovely series of shots!
Oh wow, I'm totally speechless. How absolutely wonderful!!!
NO chance of seeing anything here, it's been pouring with rain for weeks and weeks on end... So much for spring :-(
Le foto sono assolutamente fantastiche !!!!
Buona giornata :)

A minha admiração pelo deserto cresce a cada foto sua. Uma fauna preciosa e as flores, principalmente as de cactus são maravilhosas...
Esse céu... é um show à parte!
Bom fim de semana!

Happy talking to Venus.
Wow beautiful skies. You got some awesome shots.
You know what? You really help me to continue seeing the amazing beauty and diversity of Tucson. I often struggle to be fully present here -- fantasizing about northern forests and the embrace of the tall trees that I love so much -- and then I hop over here and see Tucson again and again through your eyes and I cherish the magnificence. So, thank you. _/\_
Spectacular images. Love looking at the sky and seeing the stars and moon. Love your photos.
Happy weekend!
beautiful colours...cool shots!
The shots are amazing! Especially the one of the 3 planets taken on wednesday. The composition is awesome with the silhouette of the buiding.
Great capture with the planets Diane, quite magical.
I saw the trio of planets, but I didn't take a photo. Don't think my camera is good enough. Love the saguaro blooms with the dove.
Μπράβο!!!
