Random Photos

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

A random taste of photos:
Painted Desert within the Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona. Nawiliwili Bay. White Sands National Monument, New Mexico
Purple sea urchins, fish, and other undersea life. Pelicans and other sea birds congregate on an islet. Upside down jellyfish with blue tentacles.
A green bush at Mono Lake. Pelicans and other sea birds congregate on an islet. Tufa along the shore at Mono Lake.
A pair of snails meet on a wood post. 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.
Rocky beach in Morro Bay. 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. A zig-zaggy boardwalk on the salt marshes.
Bright yellow-green leaves against a dark black background. Macro of a bright yellow flower at the beach. Painted Desert landscape with a cloud-dotted blue sky.
Macro of a purple flower with yellow pollen and green stems. (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) A succulent plant -- Crassula perforata variegata, AKA Necklace Vine or String of Buttons. Bright green leaves with dark red edges. Palm trees against a blue sky.
The still, murky water of a salt marsh. An empty sun-bleached snail shell. A lone purple wisteria flower.
Sun-bleached driftwood log on the beach. A fallen tree sleeps among the hills in Pacheco State Park, California. Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument in New Mexico.
Koi fish in a pond of water. Beautiful hills and wildflowers in Pacheco State Park, California. A deep red and pink geranium flower over a green leafy background.
