If you want to see a crowd, go to Yosemite. Must be people from Utah.

Beautiful photograph of this Ocotillo. I encountered one on a golf course
in Mesquite, NV. Made a great picture of my golf ball.

Thanks for the memories from when I lived in Southern California and traveled into the desert many times. 
Yeah. Me too. It's flat here in Florida, isn't it?

Someone posted some beautiful Ocotillo shots recently and I did not want to show this one in response to her nice work but I had to share it. There has been a lot of interest in Joshua Tree National Park recently This Ocotillo is in the park right alongside the highway. They also featured it in a brochure at the time... 2009.

Love your pictures. I drove Route 66 several times long before it was "historic." It was a real adventure. I don't think there was ever another road like it. Thanks for the memories.

I's been a hundred years since I was at Joshua Tree but I really liked it. Vegetation varies with altitude and there is a range in the park My most memorable experience was a guided tour of an abandoned ranch It took about a half day. My favorite picture from the visit.

I once scratched a very good lens and carefully painted over the scratch so it just blocked light rather than detracting it. I used the lens for years. All you can do is test the lens yourself.

Very nice shot. The rocket is in sight for usually two minutes but by exposing for four minutes, you were able to get more foreground. Good move!

Perhaps we Americans are unlikable but these "jokes" are mean and hateful. Mostly not funny.

Well, they are there. I was criticized once for removing a stop sign and power lines from in front of a California gold country 1862 church. I argued they were not there when the church was young so removing them made the picture more authentic. But, this is your picture. Do it your way.

What kind of a lens did you use? I live 17 miles away and use a 500 mm lens and don't get that much detail. I think, if you were on the causeway, you were much closer than you think. I passed up that shot thinking the lighting was impossible. Haze is a problem, too.
