Contact Martha if you’re interested in ordering a fine giclée print for your own enjoyment or licensing a digital image for your own creative project. Both full-size images and cropped panoramas are available for both.
MARBLE CANYON
northern Arizona, on the Colorado River north of Grand Canyon
Photos barely do justice to this remarkable canyon, which was carved over thousands of years by the Colorado River. And it’s notable for much more than its depth and beauty. The steep walls you see on the right in this image go on to become the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. The steep walls on the left become the North Rim.
MONUMENT VALLEY TRIBAL PARK
northeastern Arizona, on the Utah border
It’s hard to find words to describe this amazing place, which is located entirely on Navajo land. Photos barely begin to capture its amazing landscape. It’s a place one needs to visit in person to fully appreciate.
ORGAN PIPE CACTUS NATIONAL MONUMENT
southern Arizona, right on the Mexican border
Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument is a natural treasure and one of Martha’s all-time-top-favorite places. She has photographed it in many seasons over many years and never finds it boring.
For that reason, she is highly destressed at the destructive wall that a former president ordered to be cut straight through this priceless natural home of some of the rarest species of North American plants and animals… many of which traditionally migrated back and forth across the border but no longer can do that.
She’s also grateful that she had the opportunity to make these photos and others like them before that horrendeously invasive project began.
PAINTED DESERT
northeastern Arizona, part of Petrified Forest National Park
This is one of those rare places whose name tells its whole story. This famous “painted desert” is remarkable, and its position within the larger Petrified Forest National Park (see below) makes it a must-visit.
PETRIFIED FOREST NATIONAL PARK
northeastern Arizona
SABINO CANYON RECREATION AREA
southern Arizona, near Tucson
This remarkably scenic area has long been a favorite of hikers and nature lovers. It provides both healthful outdoor recreation and a rare chance to enjoy a high-quality riparian landscape in the desert.
SAGUARO NATIONAL PARK
southern Arizona, near Tucson
This amazing landscape is another of Martha’s favorite places on Earth. (So many of them are in Arizona!) Its proximity to Tucson makes it easy to access, and the fact that it has two separate areas means there’s good variety to the landscape.
Martha has made scores of photos of this remarkable landscape. Shown here are three of her favorites… from a single especially lovely — because it was unusually cloudy — day.
