  9. I forgot to go out to see the moon rise, your photo is wonderful.
    What kind of camera do you have ? I have a very nice Casio Exilim point and click that son bought me on my last trip to Japan. It is good for me because it is small and light as lifting my arm and holding up anything is impossible. But as much as I like it I never get the wonderful close-ups you do. You have such a good eye.

    This is a lovely post today !

  10. Outstanding shots Diane!!! Your supermoon is incredible. Sadly, I tried the same thing over at Saguaro East but my shots were terrible! Great captures!

  11. Thanks Parsnip, I've been using a Canon SX10, a point-and-shoot, but rather heavy because of the long zoom lens. Your Casio sounds nice and portable. :)

  12. I think it's really something wrong with me, because lately I feel like I want to eat (???) your pictures. So colorful and delicious! And, by the way, never seen blooming pomegranate, amazing flower!

  13. Your saguaro and moon are amazing.

    Believe or not, I saw lots of prickly pears in bloom down at the North Carolina coast this weekend. They just look so out of place . . .

  15. The saguaro / supermoon shot is absolutely stunning. Very worthy of framing or greeting card. You should think about offering your work for sale!
