It looks like a path of spheres in the desert leading you and inviting you to walk along to explore what nature and artists have to offer.
This is another Chihuly: The Nature of Glass installation at the Desert Botanical Garden. This is part of the the "Float Boat" glass art exhibit. The glass spheres are so colorful and each one is distinctive.
Never get tired of Chihuly! Recently on the beach here I met a woman from Seattle, and we had a good conversation about the man and his work. He is so well-known, and justly so. Thanks for your series on the exhibit.
Yes, it looks lilke a giant Easter egg hunt! Chihuly certainly gets around. We have his huge glass flowers in our museum lobby. I did a post last summer I think. V
What I like about Chihuly is watching the process of creation. I would love to visit his studio, I would consider it the opportunity of a lifetime. Great post just before Easter.
I would seriously love to see this exhibition, it looks so incredibly interesting and so very different to the climate and plants we have here. I love these glass spheres!
This is a fascinating exhibit and thank you for bringing it to us. The spheres and the succulents are so incongruous . . . I would never have thought of putting them together . . . but then that is why I am the audience.

A fascinating exhibition
surprenant ce que l'on découvre dans le désert ;o)
surprising what they discover in the desert ;o)
They look to me like flamboyant eggs left behind by mythical creatures.
I like the way you shot this one. This is one of my favorite pieces at the Chihuly exhibit at the Desert Botanical Gardens.

I don't think we can play marble with them ;).
It's sad, that the exhibiton will finally end. I enjoy your Chihuly; The Nature of Glass series.

I agree with Brattcat. I think if you follow this trail of eggs you will find a group of rainbow colored, polka dotted, dragons frolicking around.
How curious! I think this is more Alice in Wonderland than the other post! ;-)
Very beautiful photo. I like the random colors of the spheres and the way they are arranged to look natural.
at first i thought the picture was a macro picture of marbles, then i realized they are much larger.
Very beautiful spheres in an unusal setting.
Fun access to the discovery of the garden. I have some cactus photos in alisiosdecristal for you.
nice photo and interesting exhibition!
At first glance I thought they were Easter eggs...
Delightful!
I took them for giant marbles...
Your desert is an amazing place!
Such nice colors Julie!

Fascinating colors against the desert sands. Now I am anxious to play petanque at a local park.
Nice invitation to walk in the desert
thanx for visit!I have signed up as a follower too!
have a nice day!
The spheres are gorgeous by themselves, but placed in the desert and surrounded by succulents look even more fantastic!

Wow, very cool. Would love to see this in person!
