A random taste of photos:
The carcass of a large bird (species unknown) on the beach at Morro Bay, California. Beautiful green coastline near Nakalele Blowhole. Near Nakalele Blowhole.
Tufa towers at Mono Lake. A crescent moon hangs in the night sky above Morro Rock.
Painted Desert within the Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona. Miner\'s Lettuce. A green bush at Mono Lake.
Green landscape in Pacheco State Park, California. I believe the body of water shown is the San Luis Reservoir. Lovely marsh muck, ringed by beautiful colors on a curving bank. A snail checks out the purple wisteria flowers.
An old decrepit abandoned building in the toxic dead tree zone near Mammoth Mountain. (It was probably an emergency snow cabin or something.) Natural CO2 outgassing from a magma body beneath Mammoth Mountain asphyxiated more than 100 acres of trees near Horseshoe Lake in the early 1990s. The gasses become concentrated to deadly levels in enclosed structures such as cabins. Closeup of a blue dragonfly on a pinecone. Two people standing in the distance on a rocky coastal outcropping, looking at the ocean.
A green rowboat chained on the shore at Horseshoe Lake. Bright yellow-green leaves against a dark black background. Horseshoe Lake.
Macro of a sunlit spider web (sans spider). A male seagull perched on a light post against a pale foggy sky. Green landscape in Pacheco State Park, California. I believe the body of water shown is the San Luis Reservoir.
Paw prints (probably raccoon) and bird tracks in dried mud. Orange and brown fungus growing on a fallen tree trunk. Tufa along the shore at Mono Lake.
A rough stepped dirt pathway down into Waimea Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. A zig-zaggy boardwalk on the salt marshes. I have no idea what kind of plant this is. The stems resemble rosemary, and the red- or purple-speckled 2-lobed seed pods or flowers resemble spotted pillows. Any help identifying this strange plant would be appreciated!
A twisted fallen tree near Horseshoe Lake. Grand Canyon, Arizona Strange and wonderful geology in the northern part of Yosemite National Park, from Hwy 120.
