Random Photos

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

A random taste of photos:
White Sands National Monument, New Mexico Chihuahua skull on a black background. Upside down jellyfish with blue tentacles.
Natural CO2 emissions from a magma body beneath Mammoth Mountain asphyxiated more than 100 acres of trees near Horseshoe Lake in the early 1990s. A black and white spotted beetle on a morning glory stem. (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) Dried thistles against a pale brown background.
A brown-and-cream-colored moth with a curved body clings to a wall. Human shoeprints circle in the mud of a salt marsh. A roll of hay in a green field backed by trees, mountains, and fluffy white clouds.
Painted Desert within the Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona. 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. Black-necked stilts (birds) make dark trails through marsh water that curves through a colorful landscape.
A black and purple wasp-like creature with red legs and a long stinger or ovipositor (egg-laying organ). Possibly a female Ichneumon wasp -- Pimpla?  If someone knows for sure, I\'d love to be enlightened! This pair of snails appear to be looking at something over my right shoulder. Ground squirrel, ready for his closeup on the boardwalk.
Painted Desert landscape with a cloud-dotted blue sky. Macro of natural salt. Two white mushrooms in green grass.
Purple wildflowers brighten a fallen log at Pacheco State Park in California. Two people cast shadows onto shallow water at the Alviso salt marshes. A pine tree near Mammoth Lakes. (If anyone knows the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)
A strange alien-looking red succulent plant grows on a scrubby coastal region. Remnants of a fence falling into Dinosaur Lake in Pacheco State Park, California. Brown bunny rabbit laying on the green grass.
A fence constructed of driftwood, seaweed, and wire on the beach. Macro of a sunlit spider web (sans spider).
Tiny yellow and white wildflowers dot a hill in Pacheco State Park, California. A garden of succulent plants overlook the ocean in Laguna. Three slivers of light peek through the boardwalk onto the crusted and cracked salt mud.
