Dailies
These images are ones shot to post in the daily community on smugmug. I've been participating in this community for about twelve years. For the first few years, I tried to always post a shot taken either that day or the day before. Now, although I try to shoot everyday, I don't necessarily post the images on the same day they are shot.

Yucca in bud, photographed at the Desert Botanical Garden near Scottsdale, AZ. This one really MUST be viewed in the larger sizes.
Thanks for your comments on the seedheads. I spent another day processing wedding shots and I'm not even 1/3 of the way through. I'll just keep plodding on.
