Hangin' Loose in the Desert

Last year I saw a picture of a really bizarre/cool looking cactus, courtesty of mtbikeaz, that I just had to see for myself.  This type of Saguaro is known as a crested Saguaro. My first visit was with my small point-n-shoot camera and I was racing against a setting sun.  I did manage to find it and get a few sunset shots.  I decided a return visit was in order and I'd take the dslr along for the ride.  I like to refer to this stately giant as the Shaka Cactus.  Thanks again Mike, for turning me on to this desert gem.
