The desert spiny lizard in the top photo was a paparazzi favorite at the garden last Wednesday. There was a crowd of 7 or 8 photographers pointing a variety of fancy lenses his way. This fellow was loving the attention. He was still posing there when I finally walked away.
At another location, these brilliant pomegranate blooms were looking especially attractive in full sun.
This prickly pear cactus was sporting an abundance of fruit. I snapped this photo using the telephoto on my camera.
Then I thought I'd try using that "portrait" mode on my iPhone that I learned about in the class I took a few weeks ago. They give two different perspectives but I like them both.

The desert in bloom.
Sounds like a magical day in the garden! The spiny lizard clearly knew he was the star, and those pomegranate blooms must’ve looked stunning—portrait mode really does add a nice touch
Ha, the posing lizard, that is great to see.
The lizard was loving all the attention, Sharon.
Those prickly pear fruits look kind of like ice cream cones! I love prickly pear fruit -- I used to eat it in Morocco a lot but I haven't had it in years.
I have never seen pomegranate blossom before, quite lovely isn't it.
I love the desert plant and animal life.
A proud lizard getting his photo taken.
Wonderful series of photos. The lizard 🦎 is enjoying being photographed and blends in so well with the rock he is standing on.
Good shots.
