What a day.
I have so many images I haven’t even looked at yet, but this was the first one I took early this afternoon. Never before have I seen the Superstition Mountains with snow that low to the desert floor. It was an amazing sight and one I wont soon forget.
This was taken at 12:47pm right after the early morning storms rolled through.
I discovered this spot a few years ago on my own, although it’s not really a secret apparently. The normally empty location had 20 cars parked on the shoulders of the road, mud everywhere, people walking, taking pictures and a police officer hanging out to make sure nothing happened. Â Was definitely tough to take any kind of shot without people in it, so you get what you get!
More to come, including a pretty awesome shelf cloud I captured later in the day!
