Some superb photos there! The plants are wonderful of course but sometimes they can look even better in particular settings. I love the geology and the landscapes. I often think it would be a good project to grow some plants in rocks rather than in pots, if only I had the room, and the rocks. The photos of Copiapoa dealbata illustrate the point really well.
