Twilight in Tucson, Arizona

By

August monsoon evening in Tucson, AZ

My friend Jim Hogan is a performer and songwriter, in addition to being the owner (along with Esther) of the Hogan School of Real Estate.  He wrote a song in close harmony called "Twilight in Tucson."

I think this must have been what he had in mind when he wrote that song.  If I could find a rendition on YouTube, I would have embedded it here for you.

Have a great night!

Mike that's a beautiful picture. You know everyone sees something different when they look at cloud formations. Some see faces, a dog, their Aunt Jean, you know what I mean? To me the clouds in this picture remind me of the space ships in the original "War of the Worlds" from the early 1950's. I know it sounds crazy but that's what I see.

HELLO MIKE!  I see a dolphin splashing and getting ready to jump back into that beautiful purple blue "ocean" in the sky.  Ok ... back to reality - it really shows the terrific colors in the Tucson skies! -- Gabrielle

Great picture, Mike.  This is exactly what L.A. looks like at sunset with the fires.

Hi Mike - What a cool looking cloud! Makes me think of a tornado or a whale. I think I'm going to spend this weekend doing some serious cloud watching. ;-)

Absolutely beautiful colors in this composition Mike, that blue tone in the mountains doesn't look real! I've seen this here in GA too!
