Picture of the Day - 3/26/09


A double-header today... From reports we received from my sister, Susan, the wildflowers this season were spectacular along the Sierra foothills. I've always wanted to photograph the California Poppy Reserve in Antelope Valley at the extreme southern end of the Sierras, so we headed out that way, and although very windy, we were not disappointed. This first shot was taken by Sheila and what drew my eye were the bands of color - orange, green and yellow. The picture below that was taken with a wide-angle lens from underneath the poppies and a square crop was applied to eliminate some distraction.
