Yes!

I’m sure this photo is not going to win any big design or artistic awards, but it’s the photo of the week around our house. This is the envelope my daughter received yesterday from the ONLY college she applied to. Story here.

Don’t Touch

You definitely don’t want to hug or otherwise mess around with this cactus.

They look like they’re madly blushing, don’t they?

Ericka

Guess what, I don’t just shoot photos of plants and animals – I shoot humans, too! (that doesn’t sound right) My friend Ericka needed an author photo for her author page on Redroom. We had a blast doing her photo shoot – this was one of my favorites.

More Little Pricklies

 This is a closeup of that.

Cactus Land 4

The little dots look like rhinestones to me. Or teeny, tiny skull faces.

Cactus Land 3

I don’t know if this is too blurry, but I liked it.

Twisty Curvy Branches with Lemons in Background

I don’t know what kind of plant/bush this was but I really liked the shape of its branches.

Cactus Land 2

A very pretty red succulent.

Cactus Land 1

I’m staying at a writing retreat where there is the most awesome garden of cacti and succulents, ever. Photographer’s paradise. Expect to see a lot of cactus in the days to come.
