Nice Tableau

Someone in the Arroyo Seco neighborhood set this up for me to photgraph.

New Growth

This cactus outside a downtown restaurant was sprouting new growth and the color surprised me.

Change in status

The entire time I was growing up in Austin until his death in 2011, Cactus Pryor was a part of my life -- he was Austin's legendary broadcaster and the resident comedian of the LBJ administration. He's gone now, but his spirit lives on in "The Cactus Patch" that was established on the hike and bike trail that winds around Lady Bird Lake. This change from life to death and living in memory for this famous man is our entry for the City Daily Photo Theme Day. See other ideas from around the world here.

Spring on the Avenue

Flowers bloom and cacti sprout in front of the Yeti Store on Congress Avenue. That's FFP with the shopping bag and the Frost Bank Tower and then the Capitol in the distance.

Hidden gardens

I love how our town has so many little tucked-away places with plant life growing. Here you see a garden of cactus plants in an alley.

Xeriscaping at its best!

Lining up this batch of cacti took some work!
