Mosaic Monday – The Desert

We are now in the grips of summer which for those of us who live in the "hot zones" the great debate begins. Which is worse: 99 degrees, with or without humidity? Since I have lived in both, I take no humidity and consequently I prefer the desert. Here is a sampling of the desert from the Photographers of Etsy.
