Mexican Poppies are Everywhere


One of the common sights this time of year -- especially if there have been "winter" rains is Mexican Poppies. They grow along the sides of the roads, in and around trees, and in open fields. I really haven't figured out how to capture both their beauty and the number of them -- at the same time. You need a nice macro lens to get a close up of the detail. But, you need a wide angle lens with a large depth of focus to get their numbers. Nevertheless, they present a wonderful opportunity for photos by anyone with a camera.
