I'm sorry I was a little late posting this one. Last night I tried to find a landscape, but I fell asleep in the process, not having slept for 36 hours.

Tucson was fun, but unfortunatly, I didn't get much sleep friday night as we stayed up all night in the hotel room frantically trying to finish the robot. About 6AM we ran into a serious problem and had to call it quits. We were able to watch the other robots compete though, so it was a fun time. I will try to do a blog post on it soon.

Its a wonder they survive, never mind show so much colour in the process - although those look well protected, good shot.

Cactusses are amazing when they're in bloom. Very nice shot, like the DOF a lot...

I didn't know cactusses had flowers! Of course here in Missouri we dont' see to many cactusses! You learn something new all the time!
