Description
Spectacular sunrise among the wildflowers in Henderson Canyon in Anza Borrego Desert State Park, Borrego Springs, California, USA. Southern California super bloom 15 March 2017.
A wildflower “super bloom” has taken hold of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park here in Southern California. The heavy rains we had in San Diego this past winter has paid dividends in the form of the eruption of colors in a normally barren desert landscape.
"This is probably the first big bloom in at least 12 years and maybe more like 20 years," stated Sally Theriault, an Anza-Borrego Desert State Park interpreter.
As a result, I spent the last week camping and photographing around Anza-Borrego. One morning as I got out of my tent I saw the pre-dawn sky light up with brilliant colors. I got into my car and drove to the flower fields of Henderson Canyon to compose this "cracking" composition.
