They are fading away, but there are still some around.
And Tomas says, "Hey, look over here!""

You're doing some amazing close up shots. I'm enjoying everyone of them. Thanks

Thank goodness for the macro setting on cameras today. Nice pictures.

Thanks for the nice comments---appreciate it.
I really want to get a macro lens, but for now I am using my new telephoto with an extension tube---all new toys for me, and I am having a great time
learning---
Gypsy, it is going to be a shame to have that nice guest room and bodega sit there empty. It is going to get very lonely without occupants.

Nice wildflower pix, Diane.
Like Tomas, I've always been partial to those desert verbena. But I gotta tell you, I'm quite taken by your 2nd and 3rd shots. I can almost feel the
sticky resins on those tiny stems and buds, and the little blooms are just.... sweet.

Pompono,
Being one who loves everyone's baja dog pictures, Tomas is one of my favorite models.
Nena,
The flowers in the last two shots are very small and really don't look like much until one gets really close---glad you like those.
Diane
