Over the weekend I visited the Living Desert Reserve here in Palm Desert twice. One Saturday, I renewed our annual membership ($90 this year, up from $65 last year!) and spent the morning focusing on the blooming flowers and cacti and taking macro shots. I returned Sunday morning to do the same. I've previously always done landscapes, but this time, since I have a macro lens, I really focused on what was blooming. Here are some of the things I saw this weekend. I hope you enjoy them! It was a whole different perspective of my world. That's My World for Tuesday, March 29, 2011.
My adventures in and near Deep Canyon, located near Palm Desert, CA and the pinyon mountains near it.

Such wonderful desert color! Just what I need as we are getting more snow.
Beautiful blooms. I love your second to last photo with the red spikes and soft background. Great use of depth of field.
Thank you for sharing this, I live in a big city so this is out of the world for me. I bloghopped my way here, have a great day!
Beautiful flower shots. It always amazes me that those prickily cactus can have such beautiful flowers. You live in such a lovely place. Mickie :
