That is one huge cactus! Love the sepia finish, it really helps to give that feeling of warmth.

I wouldn't have knocked you if you just called it "Desert Life", but I guess some might have so good move. I like the subject. It's a little harsh on the lighting of the cactus. I'd prefer more even exposure there. 7

for some reason, I find myself drawn to the desert and the very life you mention is what makes it astonishing. The border is a tad too contrasting with the image, but you will not be docked for that. I think you did a fine job here.

Great title. The shot has an old west sense to it. LIke an old 50's postcard.
