They are. The Joshua Tree National Park is not that far from where I was 
then. But at that point I was actually nearer the Mohave Desert. Not right on 
it 
officially, but it was off that direction. Which is why I said the edge of the 
Mohave Desert.

Driving out of California to the SW I did see great cacti, the ones with the 
arms, like in cartoons, but I felt I didn't have time, so I didn't stop and 
take pictures. Wish I had. Anyway, now I know where to go to shoot them if I 
want.

Actually they're Joshua Trees which aren't really related to Cacti

Wow! Thanks.

The sky was very cooperative. Without those lovely clouds, it would not have 
been nearly as effective. Which is why I called it Mohave Sky. Sometimes one 
gets a great sky just by happenstance, sometimes when one really wants one, one 
doesn't. 

Such is life. :-)
