Random Photos

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

A random taste of photos:
Black birds sit atop tufa towers at Mono Lake. I have no idea what kind of plant this is. The stems resemble rosemary, and the red- or purple-speckled 2-lobed seed pods or flowers resemble spotted pillows. Any help identifying this strange plant would be appreciated! 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!)
Tufa towers at Mono Lake. Perrine Bridge over the Snake River Canyon in Twin Falls, Idaho. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone.
Yellow wildflowers at the beach. (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) This pair of snails appear to be looking at something over my right shoulder. Morro Rock bathed in pink light and backed by fluffy white clouds on a dreamy evening.
Upside down jellyfish with blue tentacles. Bright yellow green leaves against a dark black background. Yellow coneflowers (I think).
Grand Canyon, Arizona 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!) A silhouette of a wasp grasping a thin weed.  (Taken through a chain-link fence.)
The shores of Horseshoe Lake. \ Green tree-dotted hills converge to form a small stream valley in Pacheco State Park, California.
Near Nakalele Blowhole. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone. A collection of bones and stones on a round post surrounded by red rock.
A garden of succulent plants overlook the ocean in Laguna. Closeup of red and yellow leaves or petals of a tropical plant. Waimea Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific.
Colorful landscape surrounds a stagnant green river near the Environmental Education Center in Alviso, California. A brown-and-cream-colored moth with a curved body clings to a wall. Paw prints (probably raccoon) and bird tracks in dried mud.
Tufa towers at Mono Lake. A young woman on the boardwalk at the Alviso salt marshes. The mouth of the Wailua River, where it meets the Pacific Ocean. It felt sacred to me, a between-place, a place of transition and transformation.
