I went back to the Desert Botanical Garden on Sunday for and early morning walk that I thoroughly enjoyed. Well, I enjoyed everything except the yellowish light that was cast by the sun trying to shine through that thick upper layer of smoke. This is how the sun looked when looking up.
Every photo I took has a slight yellowish tint to it like this photo of a prickly pear cactus full of those red fruit pods.
This photo was taken from one of the longer trails looking toward one of the mountains that are part of the Papago Buttes. It also has a bit of a yellowish tint to it. The smoke is supposed to clear out by today. I'll be looking forward to blue skies again.

Even you are affected by all the smoke, tats bad
That looks terrible the smoke in the air. Hope it will blow over soon.
The first photo is fabulous.
Really captures the atmosphere of the smoky sky.
Yesterday the smoke was over head in Ontario. We were lucky that smoke too high up to affect us.
It does offer some different lighting effects
I hope it does clear out for you so that you don't have to breath the smoky air, Sharon.
Let's hope for clear blue skies.
The photos are great, as usual.
:)
So happy you can have those early morning trips to the Botanical Garden Sharon , I know how much you love it there. It's a pretty light, not the reason it's happening though. I might be getting a wee bit more used to new blogger, got my post up pretty fast last night 😉
So weird how it affects the light!
Hope you get some relief soon, breathing smoke is not good.
The cacti are fascinating.
Don't worry, Sharon. The president says it'll cool off. (You know, like how the COVID virus will disappear.)
Hope the smoke and the air quality has improved by now. I adore the photo of the prickly pear loaded with fruit.
