Looks like a bottlebrush tree, but I could be wrong
These shots are stunning...all of them. Thanks for sharing

what else can one say but "wow". Love the canyon shot. The one time we visited there it was snowing so hard you couldn't see anything. Wasted almost $200 flying out there to see snow fly. Being from Minnesota, I've seen it before.

Stunning Grand Canyon picture, awesome colors and a great sky. I believe that's a Mimosa, but bottlebrush might be another name for the same tree. Mimosas have small fernlike leaves that close up at night.
