This photo of the flowers and moon over the mountain was taken from Henderson Canyon Rd, which offers some wonderful views from the roadside inside Anza-Borrego Desert State Park.
To get to this location you'll have to enter through Anza-Borrego Desert State Park (there is a $10 vehicle charge). Once you're in the park, follow the GPS coordinates along Henderson Canyon Road to get to the exact location where I stood to take the photo.
