Very surreal desertscape. Looks like a sweet place to visit. I like that you've gotten one of the cacti up close to show the viewer what it looks like.

Cool subject, good framing, I like the relationship of foreground to background.

Just when I thought I'd see another shovel or hands in soil, you surprise me with this shot. Amazing PP. I'm getting lost in it and I like it. DMC. (Does Meet Challenge) but others may crucify you as they will say it's not your garden. I don't think the challenge specifies this.
Great image, PP, DOF, crispness on the thorns. Good Luck.

I'm jealous, that reminds me of where I was born and raised in Tucson! Now I'm in VA. No cholla here. :(
