Yuck(a)

On the way out and back, across Arizona, New Mexico, and western Texas, the yucca were in full spring bloom, fun to see. These pesky critters are harder to photograph than you'd think; they lurk by the side of the road and dart by fast when you point your camera at them. Yes, a photographer could stop and do a proper study, but I couldn't see any point in abandoning the rules of roadside photography.
