The 40-Year Bloom

Photography and Travel, specifically adventure travel and backpacking in remote North America, give me an excuse to stay outside. If kayaks, bikes, backpacks, Jeeps, archeology, geology and wildlife can be included, all the better. Having spent my life working in the fashion and photography industries, I love the unusual, the spectacular, and the beautiful. God has given us a wonderful world in which to live, and I try to open others’ eyes to its wonders. I have shared nearly 50 years of this indescribable wonder with my wife, Jodie, and we go everywhere together. I hope you will share some of our journey with us. View all posts by texasflashdude
A bit different than a few years ago when the drought had pretty much devastated all the plant life. Great to see this years resurgence.
After the drought and freezing temps 3 years ago, the desert appeared “dead.” A great testimony to the resilience of nature to bounce back quickly. The animal life has also recovered, but not as easy to photograph.
I made it to Big Bend last week, but I’m sorry to have missed this spring’s floral magnificence, which you documented a part of here.
Hope you had a good visit, Steve. Come back in February or March and catch the bluebonnets. It’s going to be another good blooming year.
