On the warehouse wall.

Mike, I really like the way you framed the graffiti on the warehouse, very cool!

 

[Terry]

I hear you --- I am torn, but leaning toward the earliest all blue ones...

My early all blue version has wall space ready and waiting for the print.

My apologies for bringing back these earlier shots into the thread.

Those are very very impressive to me. Really made an impact. I keep looking at them. Can't expand on that any further.

Lovely, Guy!:thumbs:

The plant is called a Cholla and is just plain nasty for such a cute "teddy bear" looking plant. We had two folks from Arizona on the trip that swear the balls will jump off the plant and grab you if you get closer than about 2 inches. Fortunately we also had an ex-Navy pilot who lives in New Mexico that debunked that, but cautioned not to touch any part of them at all or they would stick. Regardless of the warnings, after that shoot ALL of us were using my pair of needle-nosed pliers to pull spines out of our shoes and off our clothing...

Hell if I know . It was about 100 yards from the tree's. Nothing would surprise me there , maybe a fossil from a million years ago.

I had sushi for dinner last night... You know, the old saying about falling off the horse and such. Think I'll go grab a tuna sandwich for lunch...
