Random Photos

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

A random taste of photos:
Children playing on the shore of TJ Lake or Lake Barrett (not sure which). A male seagull, standing on a coastal cliff. Seabirds taking off at Morro Bay, California. (If anyone knows the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)
A wall of \ A strangely shaped tufa tower at Mono Lake. Tufa tower at Mono Lake.
Closeup of spiky green and red leaves on a bush resembling holly (though I\'m not sure that\'s what it is). A strangely shaped tufa tower at Mono Lake. Fish at Monterey Bay Aquarium.
A goat among sheep at Deer Hollow Farm. Deadwood on the shore of TJ Lake or Lake Barrett (not sure which). Dried thistles against a pale brown background.
Petrified wood appears as colorful stone. Human shoeprints circle in the mud of a salt marsh. Tufa at Mono Lake.
Sun-bleached driftwood tree trunk on the beach. A green bush at Mono Lake. Two tall trees on a hill overlook the ocean and a clear blue sky in Laguna.
Orange and brown fungus growing with green moss among the forest detritus. Purple sea urchins, fish, and other undersea life. Sea Nettle jellyfish.
Colorful rough-textured rock. Tufa towers in Mono Lake. A black and white spotted beetle on a morning glory leaf. (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)
A shriveling \ Claude the albino alligator, submerged under water. This building reminded me of an old decrepit church. (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.
Near Nakalele Blowhole. Millipede on a dead leaf. Closeup of green and purple wisteria flower buds against a blurred green background.
