I believe these yellow flowers are desert sunflower (Geraea canescens). I shot this along Highway S-22 aka. Borrego Salton Seaway in Borrego Springs in the Anza-Borrego Desert. Instead of my usual wide-angle shots, I've decided to experiment with close-ups and selective focusing as well. Originally I wasn't going to head out here due to there being 20 MPH and higher winds in the forecast, but the wind was mostly mild and even calm at times. And no rain either. Also, there were some nice ominous clouds in the sky. It was a perfect day for photography.
