The on-going Chihuly glass exhibit provides a whole new way of looking at the renowned specimen cactus. At this time of year there aren't many cacti in bloom and many appear visually drab green and grey. The entrance with three large green agave like glass spikes are very striking in sunlight. The large colorful yellow, orange, red, blue glass candles draw out the beauty of the various pipe type cacti. The iridescent green hornets in the new shaded cactus garden almost seem to come alive. The boatload of light & dark blue and boatload of multi-color glass of all shapes photographs extremely well from a distance and also close-up with a good digital camera.
The surprise that some people may not see are the green icebergs in the back pupfish pond among dried cattails on the Sonoran trail. Imagine icebergs in the desert!
I will definitely have to return some evening (s) before it closes in May and take another several hundred photos.
