Caution: I brake for wildflowers ...
The following galleries are a collection of wildflowers I've shot from my favorite "go to" locations throughout Oregon and the Mojave Desert. Blooming seasons are often short and sometimes I only have a few days to catch a certain flower in peak bloom — but if I miss it, there's always next year! While some images are "artsy," others are more botanical in nature and simply showcase the plant.
I'll continue to add more images as I wade through and edit the hundreds (more likely thousands) of photos I've shot!
