I'm having so much fun looking at the world through the lens of my Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3.
I will share my world of Rocklin, California and points North, South, East and West.
Come and enjoy with me.

A CHANGE OF PACE
On this rainy day in "Sunny California" I thought I would post a splash of springtime color. This is called Ice Plant and is very drought resistant. It is used as ground cover to help hold the soil in place.
Good to see your iceplant !!! Of course I have iceplant too, but I'm always amazed with how many folks have never seen it before... I used to live in Pacific Grove, which had a long stretch of the minature variety planted along the waterfront... It loves the sun, but during the night the blossoms close down...

Beautiful shot. I saw this plant for the first time on aphotoaday's blog a few days ago. Amazing color.
Wow, I haven't seen ice plant in forever (well, I guess since I moved away for CA 9 years ago!) Thanks for reminding me of it, great shot!
Wow. That is so brilliant! :)
Oh, I love that photo.

Reminds me of Monterey.. I just love how colorful these plants make everything. Great cheery capture :) :)

Lovely flowers, is this a kind of daisy? I wonder if iceplant flowers in Canada? We have plenty of ice to make it feel at home! :-)
Love it and I understand the rain.
The photo is composed well by allowing the vivid color to fill the screen. Lovely plant and blossoms.
