IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


I wanted to create an image which conveyed the isolation and beauty of the
desert.
I did this by using a single cactus that would cast an interesting shadow in the
sunset.
A lot of time was spent positioning the cactus and sun to get the shadow
correct.
Lens flare was added to give a photographic effect.
