Great stuff bajalover. It's on my list of places to go. I bet it looks a lot different in the summer. It's just amazing how green that desert can be. That road looks very inviting.

Glad you like this sort of thing Paula. I couldn't believe the sky that morning. I remember looking for anything to offset it before the rocks got too bright.

What beautiful pictures. I love the desert too.
This one was taken a little over a month ago. I thought that the light was nice.
It was taken just outside of Guerrero Negro headed south.

Ken, love the variety of plants in your last two shots there. The colors and different shapes of the cactus plants are just great!
