Nice!

Hi Sarah,
to see the flowers while hiking or climbing in the mountains is always nice, but these ones are truly superb.
Ciao!

Re: Nice!

Thanks, Silvia!

I know I annoy my climbing partners who are "all about business" in the mountains, wanting to get as quickly from Point A to Point B and back. I love to stop and enjoy little gifts like these desert flowers!

Aahh!

Cute little suckers. Like baby birds in a nest.

Re: Aahh!

Noon,

Baby birds in nest - what a comparison, love it!

I love these little ground cactus. They always signal the coming of spring. =)

Re: Fantastic shot

Thanks, Jer. I've got climbing partners who roll their eyes at me when I'm crawling around in the dirt with my camera to capture images like this one. =)
