sounds like you loved it...

some very beautiful images Kyle, especially the next to last....such  
an amazing place, and if you are there at the right time, and can get  
free of the people, you see and capture the most beautiful light...

you did it...

so how do you get shots, free of people ?

oh, the cholla don't really jump, just don't touch them, rarely they  
can be life threatening...
