Staying with the desert theme... an especially spiny subspecies of prickly pear in its Mojave Desert environment.

Canon T1i, f/18, 1/30 sec, ISO-200, 29mm, tripod.

Dave: Have really enjoyed your flora landscapes and the cacti especially. Good light on this and a solid comp. My only suggestion at the time of capture would have been a slightly lower POV to push the cacti higher in the frame and closer to the nice color in the hills above the cliff face. Nice find nicely captured.>=))>

Well in my defense Bill, while that does seem like a good suggestion, that may have required me to lay on the ground to compose through the viewfinder and that is something I generally avoid in these sticky situations. There is a lot of invisible stuff lurking on the ground :eek:
