 I took this a while ago but never processed it. Well, I processed it and then discarded the results. Meaning, it's difficult to get to look good - dark foreground, light back ground etc.

So I fussed with it again and here you go. Good enough for the 50 day side, for the sake of showing you what I see when looking down the parking lot where I keep my car. This is the North Mountain Range, which bleeds into Squaw Peak Mountain further to the east - this is looking east. The buildings are from my apartment complex - sadly they painted it all this hideous yellow, which in large quantities looks horrible - but for this photo it kind of works.

Obviously, this is sun set and moon rise. Actually it could have been sun and moon rise, come to think of it - I don't remember.

The composition is well done, and I really like the subtle shades in the sky.

The yellow works really well here - helps the building stand apart from the mountain. I love that view of the moon as well. I bet this place is gorgeous towards dusk.

I love seeing the moon in the daytime. This photo has really nice, soft colors. Pastel sky, earthier tones below, but they complement each other. The house seems to fit in well with the landscape, too. Excellent composition.

This looks so Arizona it hurts. All those funky colors and shapes really work well together. Only in Phoenix!

I love the processing and composition. And really, could you be any funnier?

OK appreciating that we are not seeing the full picture I have to say that I love the colours in this shot with the yellow of the builing contrasting bicely against both the sky and the redness of the mountains

Looking at this more I have to say the way the chimney stacks seem to mirror in a far smaller size the rise and fall of the mountain backdrop really helps make the shot
