Documentary Photography








After careful consideration I chose to photograph different areas of Greasewood Park.  The park is a great example of the Sonoran Desert.  The thought process behind this is to emphasize that the Sonoran Desert is the only home to the Sahuaro Cactus and how our parks need to be kept clean and construction free.  It is illegal to cut down this cactus and in ourder to move it you need the city's permission.  With all the construction in Tucson and the parks, ask yourself, how many of these cacti can we move before we start effecting their growth?  Another key note is that littering is not only wrong by poluting the environment, but it also defaces the natural beauty of the park.  The Sahuaro Cactus still stands strong and mighty today, but for how long?  This is something to keep in mind as we try to preserve nature at it's best.  The Sonoran Desert is unique and holds a home to many different species of plants and animals, we need to take this into consideration before the contruction gets out of hand do our best to keep pollution at a minimum.
