city

There are many mountain ranges doted throughout the city of Phoenix. Almost every neighborhood has its own 'local' mountain. This is a view of a neighborhood known as 'Ahwatukee' (aw-wa-too-kee) I don't live specifically in this neighborhood, my house is somewhere in the flat area off to the left.
How interesting, not at all my idea of an American city. Could be central Spain, with the terracotta colours. Tag it city-mytown and it will be entered into the current Cities competition.

@laroque I had a friend from England visit me years ago, and he thought the same thing! Thanx for the tag info. Will do.

This is got a lovely desert type light over it. Hot and dry!

I love the individual mountain ranges in Phoenix & suburbs. Fantastic city photo!

I have a very romantic view of towns/cities named in the song Route 66 and like Tim would have pictured Phoenix differently, even though I have no basis for my image. Great shot you must have been on one of the mountains when taking it.

Great shot. I'd love to be so close to mountains

@jack4john Phoenix is a big sprawling city...there are so many different identities of it, from posh to slum, it's got it someplace.

I really like the city-mytown idea. So lovely to have an overview of the place where you are - even just nearly by.

Interesting view of the city--I had never heard of mountain ranges being within a city.
