A random taste of photos:
A colorful landscape and the stagnant green water of the salt marsh surround the Environmental Education Center in Alviso, California. Miner\'s Lettuce. Tufa towers at Mono Lake.
Labyrinth near Dragon's Teeth, Kapalua, Maui. On the left, a silvery green succulent plant of unknown species.  (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)  On the right, a dark red and green succulent groundcover plant, Sedum spurium, AKA Bronze Carpet Stonecrop. Ground squirrel, in front of the hole he calls home.
Tufa towers in Mono Lake. White Sands National Monument, New Mexico. A cyclist reflected in the water of a salt marsh rides across the horizon.
Salt beds form a strange landscape. A live cicada on my house. Dried thistles against a pale brown background.
A red wildflower by a stream near Mammoth Lakes. It resembles Indian Paintbrush, but I\'m not sure what it is. Waimea Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. Macro of orange plants. This photo was taken by Geneva Hudspeth and put in the Creative Commons with her permission.
Near Nakalele Blowhole. Interesting mountain shapes near Mammoth Lakes. The impressive Morro Rock in Morro Bay, California.
Green tree-dotted hills converge to form a small stream valley in Pacheco State Park, California. A rough stepped dirt pathway down into Waimea Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone.
Rough textured bark on the trunk of a tree. Leopard shark. Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument in New Mexico.
Colorful plants grow on the bank of the green waters of a salt marsh. Purple coral with yellow tentacles. I believe this is plate coral, a large polyp stony (LPS) coral often referred to as a Disk, Mushroom, Chinaman, Fungia Plate, or Tongue Coral. Closeup of spiky green and red leaves on a bush resembling holly (though I\'m not sure that\'s what it is).
A wasp grasping a thin weed.  (Taken through a chain-link fence.) Bright orange California poppies. Pink flower closeup against a green background.
