A quick trip to Arizona was the perfect way to kick off the new year. The desert landscape provided a palette of burnt oranges and moss greens, that I don’t normally get the opportunity to see. I checked out the Botanical Garden in Pheonix on my first day there and saw a myriad of cacti, I didn’t realize how diverse they can be. The following days were spent going on road trips and hikes with my friend while stopping for food during our charging breaks. Driving through a snowstorm in AZ was unexpected, but it gave me the opportunity to get some dope snow-capped red rock shots, so worth it.
The hike was difficult, mostly because my boots weren’t waterproof—once it became icy and vertical…my pants ripped 😂. We had to make an emergency stop at a strip mall on the way back to secure some new sweats. Also, shoutout to the well-paved roads in Arizona, it made driving a Tesla much more enjoyable 👌🏾. Overall, a great trip and I’ll probably visit again. My photos were taken on both my S20 and my Fujifilm X-T30, enjoy!
