Reclining Agave and PoppiesIt's easy to get an interesting photograph when you find good contrast in your subjects. And I'm not just talking about the lighting. The delicate flowers with the backdrop of the imposing-looking Agave makes for a nice composition. And yet, there are similarities between the graceful curves of this particular Agave and the soft curves of the flowers that make this composition work particularly well. |

Tequila on the HoofWell, probably not really Tequila fixin's. I don't think it's not that kind of Agave and this one in particular has a safe home at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden.I like the color of this plant, more blue-gray than most Agave. The older outer leaves make interesting patterns on the new inner leaves making many interesting photographic opportunities. Like my Orchid Cactus the Agave are commonly pollinated by bats. agave 2 | Agave parryi 1 | cactus 23 | pointy 1 | sharp 2 | spine 1 | succulent 20 | Tequila 1 | thorn 2 |
