We took a break from spring corn on the eastside to join friends for a benefit in Joshua Tree.  Took a little time to climb as well as a good long hike.  The cactus is in full bloom._MG_9655crop1.jpg

Mojave Desert photo shoot

Posted by dittli in wildflowers, Spring, New Images, Hiking, Desert

We just returned from a ten day assignment shooting remote ranges in the Mojave. We ended up shooting the Palo Verde, Cady, Soda and Avawatz Mountains. Quite a bit of driving, not much hiking, but nice cactus and wildflower blooms. 093_124_D1LP.jpg
