[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this photo on an early morning hike in Tucson, in late November. A little bit of history--

from Wikipedia:
Tucson was probably first visited by Paleo-Indians, known to have been in southern Arizona by about 12,000 years ago. Recent archaeological excavations near the Santa Cruz River have located a village site dating from 4,000 years ago. The floodplain of the Santa Cruz River was extensively farmed during the Early Agricultural period, circa 1200 BC to AD 150. These people constructed irrigation canals and grew corn, beans, and other crops while gathering wild plants and hunting animals. The Early Ceramic period occupation of Tucson saw the first extensive use of pottery vessels for cooking and storage. The groups designated by archaeologists as the Hohokam lived in the area from AD 600-1450 and are known for their red-on-brown pottery. By 1900, 7,531 people lived in the city. In 2006 the population of Pima County, in which Tucson is located, passed one million while the City of Tucson's population was 535,000.
