More McDowell wildflowers.  The bright colors in some of the hills are amazing for the desert.

Great picture, as always. Just like with the rest of your pictures, I like it how the plants and the surrounding look lit up. Thanks a lot for sharing your daily photos, I make them my inspiration to take better photos, but still not successful in capturing glowing objects :( like these, but something for me to really work on and solve the puzzle :)

Thanks Elizabeth!

The colors in the shadows always seem to be richer. The sun was on the background hill, the foreground hill was in shade, I used a two stop graduated neutral density filter to help balance the exposure between the two hills.
