Random Photos

Here are a bunch of random photos. Feel free to reload the page to see some more!

A random taste of photos:
Still marsh water reflects faded hills within a curved shoreline. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone. Tufa at Mono Lake.
A silhouette of a wasp grasping a thin weed.  (Taken through a chain-link fence.) A white mushroom on a fallen tree near Mammoth Lakes. An old wooden water well in a Japanese garden, covered by bamboo stalks strung together.
Macro of bright green acorns and oak leaves. Tufa towers at Mono Lake. Children playing on the shore of TJ Lake or Lake Barrett (not sure which).
Red and gray rock cliffs and towers in Sedona. Lovely marsh muck. A male seagull, standing on a coastal cliff.
Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument in New Mexico. Interesting mountain shapes near Mammoth Lakes. A large gray and silver koi fish in a shallow green pond.
A tight cluster of thin red-orange seaweed at the beach. Beautiful hills and wildflowers in Pacheco State Park, California. Painted Desert within the Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona.
Yellow wildflowers lead to a pond in Pacheco State Park, California. Tabby cat with green eyes. Bright pink flowers gather around a fencepost.  (If anyone knows the flower species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)
This is either a Sharp-shinned Hawk or a Cooper\'s Hawk, eating a smaller bird. I believe it is a juvenile (fledged some weeks ago). This hawk family lived in a eucalyptus tree on a golf course. Soaptree yucca plant at White Sands National Monument, New Mexico. Spigots against a red brick wall.
Driftwood litters the beach near the mouth of the Wailua River, where it meets the Pacific Ocean. Dragon's Teeth, Kapalua, Maui. This fellow looks like a bee, but may be a hoverfly, AKA flower fly. Any entomologists out there are most welcome to correct me!
Tufa towers at Mono Lake. A mountain range near Mammoth Lakes, California. Footprints in the mud of a salt marsh.
