Very nicely composed and captured, David. If I remember correctly, this one was literally on the side of the "road" as we passed, yes?

Must be very hardy, looks like it's growing out of the rock! Cool shot. V

Amazing how some plants can grow anywhere. I wonder if snakes use it as a hiding place.

A beautiful composition with excellent texture and lovely color in the rock. It's amazing how some plants can thrive in such a climate, as I have found here as well. V.
