Random Photos

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

A random taste of photos:
A shriveling \ A red flower near Mammoth Lakes. It resembles Indian Paintbrush, but I\'m not sure what it is. Sunlight shines on bug-bitten veined green leaves and spider webs.
Wailua River. A tadpole with legs in the shallow water of TJ Lake or Lake Barrett (not sure which). Shoshone Falls (sometimes called the
Tall tufa tower at Mono Lake. A shed cicada skin among orange Marigold flowers. A young woman on the boardwalk at the Alviso salt marshes.
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. Perrine Bridge over the Snake River Canyon in Twin Falls, Idaho. \
Grand Canyon, Arizona Black birds sit atop tufa towers at Mono Lake. Lavender or purple flower against a blurred green background.
Sea Nettle jellyfish. Snake River Canyon in Twin Falls, Idaho. You can see a waterfall in the distance on the right. Painted Desert landscape with a cloud-dotted blue sky.
Bright pink flowers gather around a fencepost. (If anyone knows the flower species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) Giant yellow flower on a zucchini plant. Spigots against a red brick wall.
A flimsy fence somehow manages to contain a huge hill in Pacheco State Park, California. A vacant paper wasp nest held in the palm of my hand. The nest is constructed of open hexagonal cells in which the young develop. Lovely marsh muck collects near the bank. Egrets are barely visible in the distance.
A natural pink salt marsh. Interesting mountain shapes near Mammoth Lakes. Yellow wildflowers (and some sort of flying insect) at Mono Lake.
A flimsy fence somehow manages to contain a huge hill in Pacheco State Park, California. The still water of a salt marsh reflects white and gray clouds in a blue sky. Nene, or Hawaiian goose. The official state bird. This one was very friendly and came close, looking for a handout.
