WOW!

I just smile when I look at your shots. I love them. They remind me that I have all this beauty at my fingertips and need to get out and take it all in.

Really nice Doug. Wait until they start to flower!! You'd better have your rocker locked up as it's becoming quite famous and it might just disapear into the desert to never return. BW
