I neglected to record the species of this cactus, hence
the title, 'Shark's Teeth'. This is another shot from the
Desert Botanical Garden.

My wife Debra and I spent the Spring wedding planning,
getting married, honeymooning in Nicaragua and preparing
for the arrival of our first baby in October. Needless to say
there has been much time for shooting. I'm hoping to
spend more time at the DBG as I really enjoy horticultural
photography.]]> tag:bryanbaca.com,2007://1.148 2007-12-31T23:15:56Z 2008-01-01T23:17:15Z

I'm back. After almost a year-long hiatus, I've started
shooting again. What a pleasure it was to spend a
day out with camera in hand. This doesn't mean I finally
shelled out for a new camera. Instead I'm using my
fiancée's Nikon D40. Her beautiful picture is coming soon.

This shot was taken at the
Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix.]]> tag:bryanbaca.com,2006://1.131 2006-12-15T01:46:21Z 2007-01-15T15:52:36Z

FYI...
Arizona takes its name from a ranch of the same
name established by Bernardo de Urrea in 1735 in
the rugged, mountain country about forty miles
southwest of Tumacácori

Sad to say my photo time has been severely limited
by work. I expect things to mellow a bit and find more
time to edit and post. Comments are off until I can
find a way to limit the hundreds of spam comments
I get daily.]]> tag:bryanbaca.com,2006://1.130 2006-12-14T00:57:54Z 2006-12-14T01:06:27Z

It's been a tough week getting stuff edited and posted. This is my first
week teaching and it hasn't left time for much else. That's no excuse,
I know. I'm looking forward to doing some editing this weekend. In the
meantime, check out Lorissa's photoblog, apparently nothing. She's a
great photographer and one of my inspirations for this project.]]> tag:bryanbaca.com,2006://1.129 2006-12-09T15:50:42Z 2006-12-09T15:51:24Z

I reviewed my site traffic recently and notice there are a regular group of visitors to my
humble photoblog each day. Some are from as far away as Beijing and some as close
as my old hometown of Merced. Thank you all for taking the time to visit. If you see
something you like, or something you don't, don't hesitate to leave a comment.

Thinsite has an interesting post today.]]> tag:bryanbaca.com,2006://1.126 2006-12-06T13:24:36Z 2006-12-08T23:59:44Z

More on the Apache Crown Dance.

-- Updated: 12/4, 9:30a
The Crown Dancers were taking part in a Harvest Festival that took place near the
mission at Tumacacori. I will be posting more images of the dancers this week.

The Sonoran Desert is the second most diverse ecosystem on Earth. We have more plant and
animal species here than anywhere else on Earth, except the rainforest. . . .So that's why we
talk about the developers all the time, and give them such a bad time. Because once they
develop this little desert, it's gone, and a whole ecosystem goes with it that can never
be replaced and exists nowhere else.
