Beginning image of a set created from a number of photos taken Friday in Tucson. This is on the Stone-6th Avenue street just south of center downtown. It seemed a good theme for these last months of immigration reform at the heart of many Americans.

The far left side of the mural, taking up the entire side of the building. The contrast of the painted tree and cactus interested me. See the next images for more detail views of this lovely park.

Sign for the park, with the hand on the mural seeming to raise a point...
This is one of 13 images from a set devoted to this beautiful city park in Tucson, Arizona. The set is created to extend my concerns that Monday's protest on Immigration Reform go as peacefully as the many marches and rallies went in the last several months. I, for one, will not spend any money at any business Monday. I hope a message is sent and makes an impact when so many immigrants again take a peaceful stand.

Central figures of the giant mural. These are on the left and the next images show detail views. Wikipedia has a good article about Chavez and his legacy, here.
