    Beautiful detail!

    Cacti are probably the only plant I wouldn't end up inadvertantly killing.

      Well Woody...you've got an excuse...you're a bit farther from the border than we are!!! Cinco de Mayo is a major event in California!!! (especially SoCal!)

    Great shot of the budding cacti. I like the fact that you included the shadow the cacti cast too.

      The sun is so bright down there and the contrasts between the light and shadows so well defined...I have to include the shadows!!!
