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 depth marker stands upright in the stagnant green river of a salt marsh. Rocky beach in Morro Bay. Crystal Crag and broken rocks face off at TJ Lake or Lake Barrett (not sure which).
Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument in New Mexico. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone. Ground squirrel, standing on a post with a blurred background.
Seabirds in Morro Bay, California. (If anyone knows the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) A zig-zaggy boardwalk on the salt marshes. Lovely marsh muck collects near the bank. Egrets are barely visible in the distance.
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!) 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. 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.
This fellow looks like a bee, but may be a hoverfly, AKA flower fly. Any entomologists out there are most welcome to correct me! Upside down jellyfish with blue tentacles. A bright red and yellow sunflower in front of a green ivy-covered brick wall.
A greenish-yellow wildflower. It looks like maybe the buds haven\'t opened yet. Black-necked stilts (birds) make dark trails through marsh water that curves through a colorful landscape. Little purple flowers growing in beach sand. It resembles sand verbena, but I\'m not sure. (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)
Pink flower closeup against a green background. Rotting logs and a garbage bag partially submerged in the murky green water of a marsh. A hut constructed of driftwood and seaweed on the beach.
Giant yellow flower on a zucchini plant. Wildflowers brighten a grove of trees in Pacheco State Park, California. Red berries and green leaves.
Perrine Bridge over the Snake River Canyon in Twin Falls, Idaho. A snail checks out the purple wisteria flowers. Interesting mountain shapes near Mammoth Lakes.
A pond reflects fluffy white clouds on a mountain-flanked plain in Idaho. Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument in New Mexico. A closeup of a brown and white pinto horse\'s mane.
