  • Surprising what a wet winter can turn up in a desert. So much colour and variety in a desert setting; this must be a photographer's paradise. Haig I really enjoyed this album with its beautiful scenery, amazing colours and surprising variety. Another album of excellence; cheers from Keith.

  • Hi Haig. Yes, the rain makes the desert come alive and you have captured a wonderful variety of vibrant wildflowers, each with its own special beauty. Californian Poppies are always a favourite with me, and that purple gem in #12 is a beauty, also those wonderful pink bells later on. Would never have guessed it was a cactus skeleton in #1, great foreground. The desert landscape is completed by the wonderful cacti standing proud and tall to make a great album. Best wishes..

  • Haig, I have really enjoyed viewing this magnificent album. You went out into the desert with your camera and emerged with some masterpiece photographs that you should be very proud of. I had read on Yahoo last month that a bumper crop of wildflowers was expected this year because the conditions were so perfect. You have certainly proved that prediction. I also think it is quite interesting that I was shooting the desert in Nevada on the same day that you took these. Wonderful stuff here... Thanks! Clark

  • Beautiful album, Haig! It gives me hope that Spring really is coming in more than just name only. We did have a heavy snowfall on Easter Sunday, but the ground was warm enough that it didn't really stick, so the picnic table would have been clear :-) Thanks for your Easter greeting - I hope you had a great one and are going to have a wonderful spring. Hugs and warmest greetings from Missouri, Beth
