So, finding myself in a backyard in the Sonoran desert one unbearably hot summer afternoon, I decided to make a short photo adventure to capture the textures of nature in this area.
Interesting, provocative, perhaps even avant-garde? Probably not.
But if you're from the Southwest United States, have ever been here, or would like to know what kind of flora you're going to run into, here's a good reminder.

My name is Joe Pinzone and I'm casting an international travel show about expats moving abroad. We'd love to film in France and wanted to know if you could help us find expats who have moved there within the last 15 months or have been there for 3-4 years, but recently moved into a new home. The show documents their move to a new country and will place the country in fabulous light. The contributors on the show would also receive monetary compensation if they are filmed. If you'd like more information, please give me a call at 212-231-7716 or skype me at joefromnyc. You can also email me at joepinzone@leopardusa.com. Looking forward to hearing from you.
