PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA – A thoroughly bad day for landscape photography. Up at 5:00 AM to drive to Palm Springs to catch an 8:00 flight to New York. All air traffic had ground to a halt because of the previous days bad weather and a heavy ground fog. Almost four hours of delay. We finally arrived in New York in the dark.
Here’s our departure gate in Palm Springs, waiting for an airplane.

ANZA-BORREGO DESERT, CALIFORNIA – I grew up in the desert in Utah so arid places are deeply in my comfort zone. Anzo-Borrego is a serious desert – annual precipitation is less than 7 inches. During the 1982-89 drought total precipitation was zero. The Borrego Badlands is often listed as the hottest place in the United States – average summer temperatures are 107 degrees. Highs of 125 degrees have been recorded.
But this spring there has been reasonable rainfall, so the desert here is remarkably green.
