Congratulations, Ralf. I just wish someone had taken a picture of you getting that perspective shot of the saguaro!

Kudos also to Buck, Hob, Saguaro 123 and Daiv. Nice work.

Great picture, Ralf. I confess that I had your photo as number two, liking the simplicity of Bucks composition just a little more, but your photograph is very good. Congratulations!

Thanks very much, folks. I'm very happy. \:D/
Congrats to Buck, hob, Saguaro123 and Daiv. =D>

Of course this contest wasn't easy because not everybody know exactly which plants are grow in the Sonoran Desert.

As I've taken this pic was Ed on my side. Maybe he has taken a pic of me as I took this pic. You can ask him at your next monthly meeting of the TCSS. :wink:
