2024 Reports
May 16 2024 Marcus reports: Several days of warm weather has really enhanced the bloom in the Tonopah, Nevada area. Desert Globemallow is by the far the most prominent flower at the moment. So much so that even at a distance, there are large swaths of orange visible in Montezuma and Ralston Valleys which I have never seen before. Dare I say a super bloom!?
The following photos were taken on 15 May 2024, south of Tonopah, Nevada at elevations between 5,700′ and 6,300′.
Photos tips: Most digital point-and-shoot cameras have a macro function – usually symbolized by the icon of a little flower. When you turn on that function, you allow your camera to get closer to the subject, looking into a flower for example. Or getting up close and personal with a bug. More on desert photography.
