The Beauty of the Desert




Such diversity
I just wanted to take a moment to say how  beautiful the desert of Baja really is. At first glance, it may look very barren. A waste land.  That couldn't be farther from the truth. Sure it would be a very difficult place to try to survive, and you wouldn't want to be marooned out here, but that does not detract from the beauty of the place.

Close up on an individual cactus. Can anyone tell me what it is?



And a little closer. Don't want to be brushing up against these!














And something completely different.

How about these fellows?


And these?



If anyone can help identify these magnificent plants, please comment and let me know.
