Mori point tidy tips

Tidy tips at Mori point, CA. I went to the Mori point after I heard that there is a “super bloom” going on there. But when I made it there, I figured that CA is really suffering drought because now even an ordinary bloom is referred to as a super bloom. When I have disappointments like this, I generally try to use my 70-200 mm lens to take a close-up shot of a few flowers conglomerated together. When I took this shot and edited it, I was actually surprised it came out this good.
