Little more on Scottsdale






A little more on Scottsdale - There is a fantastic ceramic exhibition at the ASU - Museum - featuring the Besser Collection - http://asuartmuseum.asu.edu/besser/index.html

Also the Pueblo Grande Museum featured the meticulous works by Michael Hampshire in their current exhibition. http://phoenix.gov/PUEBLO/pueblo7.html We attended the very well attended opening last Thursday.

While there I photographed the landscape in and around Camel Back Mountain/Paradise Valley. The Saguaro Cacti are impressive to stand amongst - we also picked fresh gigantic lemons, oranges, and found a grape fruit stand down the road - that functions on your honor system - two dollars dropped through a slot in a lock box - for a full bag of YUMMY grapefruits. I'm already looking forward to my return in April.
The crabs pictured above are waving hello from the Asian Market - they had tanks full of all kinds of fresh fish - and lines of people waiting to order. We waited our turn for a two pound lobster.
