Wildflowers are beginning to come along nicely around Phoenix, there are even some nice patches of poppies and lupine to be found – not the widespread fields yet, but it is looking promising!

Would you look at all those colors! Great location Ron. Beautiful image.

Wow! This looks like the Yellow Brick Road leading to the Emerald City. And I love how the yellow leads you right to the purple mountains.

Beautiful, I’m happy you still down their. Bugger that I had to leave just a few days ago but the baby would not accept a change in schedule… Good luck with your remaining shot!

Awesome Ron. From the photos I have seen on the flower reports, seems like AZ is having a better bloom than So Cal.

This is very beautiful. You make this look so easy :)

Very beautiful Ron. I love the interaction of the purple of the hills with the middle ground and flowers of the foreground.
