Hi :) I am still in California but my mom is finally getting better... slowly!! :) :) Finally got a chance to head out and take a few shots. I saw this colorful bush --back lighting provided by the morning sun. I was with a small group of photographers seeking out wild flowers.... . Well how was I to know that this is poison oak!! Oh well I still think it is cool looking :) :) Thank goodness I didn't catch any.. :) :) I am going to try to post more frequently and to get back to commenting again. Aloha, Renee :) :)

Hi Renee, glad to hear your mom is OK. And nice to see you're still posting some great shots. Oh, and stay away from that poison oak. It's bad stuff.

Aloha, Renee, You are doing the work of the good people and I'm sure your mother is appreciative.

Poison oak, who knew? It is pretty, isn't it. Maybe it's one of those things they call an attractive nuisance.

Beautiful colors and lighting. Interesting how something potentially "poisonous" can be so attractive.

I'm glad your mom is doing better.

Funny that I was doing a google search of sunset and windward side and your link pops up - hope your moms doing better and you are too!

Its a georgous looking plant with the way the light breaks through the leaves but i wonder how poisonous is it? I will have to google that as well! Nice focus and blur for sure!
