Spring Bloom near Gorman, CA

[Douglas Sherman]

Every time we get a good rain in the Gorman/Antelope Valley region I start dreaming about spring flowers. So I thought I would post one of my dreams from past years. This probably wont be a good year because we had no rain in November or December.

Hey Doug,

What a super display! I usually try to get up to Gorman also, it's a fun place to run around and explore. I don't think I have anything that looks as nice as this one!

That looks pretty nice - between the green covering all of the hills and the flowers this scene is easy on the eyes.

Poppies are one of those quintessentially California things (or, California poppies, anyway). Nice job, Doug!

Love that foreground grouping of poppies. Really nice shot, Doug.

Love this Doug, perfect comp...

Great job Douglas. I can remember driving up to Gorman, even before I-5 was in. Never had a camera in those days, we would just drive up to see them.

 

[Douglas Sherman]

Thank you everyone. Poppies are my favorite flowers and I am happy all of you enjoy them too.

Absolutely beautiful, Douglass. What a show! I love the way you have them disappearing into the hills.
