By Request :) More Baja Pics
Once again, more pics from our Spring Break Road Trip, in no particular order. Enjoy!
My attempt of this beautiful full moon in BOLA. Night shots are not easy.
BOLA beach. The water was so clear and warm. I understand it gets even warmer during summer, but compared to California, it was warm to me
Me again. We had fun taking pics out on the sand bar (if that is what you call it.)
Santa Rosalia thru the truck window. What a cute little town, but we didn't spend a long time there; stopped at the bakery and bought fresh baked
bread and ate tacos from a cart on the street, yes, we were brave
The Orchard again, along the river.
We stopped in Catavina, I explored and took pictures; Will took a quick nap in the truck along side the road. Thank goodness we had no problems. I
don't think we would have done that if I had read about the problems before hand. Here is one of the pics I am glad I didn't miss.
These guys thought I was nuts. I took this while waiting at a check point
Mules? They were cute, but ran off and this is as good a pic as I could get.
These boojum trees were so beautiful.
Back at Carmalita's She and her son were the sweetest people. Now I am hungry!
We went for a bumpy ride to Punta Chivato (note to self, bring sports bra next time) but didn't even get out of the truck. This was taken through the truck windshield, see the bug splats on the
lower left, hehe....
Will checking out the fire damage in Mulege.
Willy's Market, a little place outside of Loredo. I took this pic because of the name
Sunrise in Mulege at the Serenidad.
Will took this picture. It's too cool. The Serenidad Airstrip.
RIP Hector
I loved these fences. I can't remember really where this was. I do know it was past Santo Tomas.
Ok, this is so out of order. Rosarito Jesus blessing our trip. Pic taken going about 65 mph
Will getting ready for lunch in Bahia Concepcion
Kitty in Mulege
I can't wait to go back again. Thanks for sharing our trip with us

Tina,
Just me, but I love things a little minimal, and if you crop the top picture (of the moon) about an eighth of an inch below the tip of the post (?) on
the right, it is gorgeous! It is nice as is also.
What a beautiful shot at Catavina-- to find it in such deep rich bloom, very fortunate!
Willy's-- is that at Puerto Escondido? The English makes me a little sad--I much prefer abarrotes en gral. It took me much to long to figure out
what en gral means, you see it every where, and it is soooo obvious! DUH!
And good job getting those army guys! When my husband got one shot north of Loreto, they told him no pictures. You must have given them a good
smile
Thank you for being so generous with your lovely pictures--
Paula

Tina --pictures #3
Tina,
Once again your pictures demonstrate a unique hidden talent that should be cultivated.
Please always remember as a photographer that the best is judged by the worst and the worst is judges by the best--so display the best and toss the
rest. (I think you know the ones.)
Once again thanks for the photographic treat==To ms-quote a famous movie line "you made my day."

Thanks for posting these, I really enjoyed all of them. You have a wonderful eye, I love your selection of subjects and the way you choose to compose
them. I have photographed Hector's memorial many times but never thought to step back and get the whole site like you did. That's the best photo of
the Hector memorial I have seen. Bravo,
++Ken++

Enjoyed your photos, Tina, especially the wind tip whorl! Reminds me of good memories on our first drive down to Baja!
When the way comes to an end, then change. Having changed, you pass through.

Wow, sorry for the delay in responding. I started a new job this week and it's been crazy, but in a good way
Thanks everyone for your lovely comments. I truly enjoy sharing my pics with true Baja lovers. By your comments, it lets me know that it wasn't all
in my head that we had one of the best trips ever and covered good ground for just flying by the seat of our pants. Thank goodness for our handy
dandy travel Moon book
Paula, you are right about that pic of the moon. I processed that one super face and have now re-cropped it and like it much better. I will post at
the end of my comment And yes, Willy's I believe was in Puerto Escondido.
Grover- I think Will was as close as he looked, crazy gringo, hehe....
Ken B - Awww, poor Hector. I think I actually took that pic from the truck, just shooting out the window. A lot of my shots were done that way....I
was saying "pull over" a lot, lol, then I would hang out the window and take my pics. Thanks for the complement.
Again, everyone else, thanks again. I love this group
Tina
Cropped (and removed telephone pole) moon shot. Unfortunately, the quality seems to have gone down but I am too tired to figure it out
