What a brilliant foil they are against the cool, hard sharpness of the rocks... survivors definately...

They look bright, succulant and cheery... Clarity, tones, light and shadows great Joggie...

Onie...

You always amaze me with your knowledge of plant names or other such minute information, Joggie.

This is well done, perfect light on the main subject. That is the other thing I like about your work. Good job!

Best wishes,
Dave
