A random taste of photos:
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. A purple flower near Mammoth Mountain. Lavender or purple flower against a blurred green background.
Macro shot of a bee on a purple flower. Rocky beach in Morro Bay. Pink mushroom in green grass.
A green rowboat chained on the shore at Horseshoe Lake. A roll of hay in a green field backed by trees, mountains, and fluffy white clouds. Closeup of green, yellow and red leaves of a plant.
Lovely marsh muck. Lavender flowers on a green succulent plant at the beach. Two people cast shadows onto shallow water 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. Sun-bleached driftwood tree trunk on the beach.

A vacant paper wasp nest held in my fingertips. The nest is constructed of open hexagonal cells in which the young develop. Paw prints (probably raccoon) and bird tracks in dried mud. Closeup of green, yellow and red leaves of a plant.
Black birds sit atop tufa towers at Mono Lake. Giant yellow flower on a zucchini plant. Pink flower closeup against a green background.
Trees reaching for the sky. Macro shot of a bee on a purple flower. A towering redwood tree in the Santa Cruz Mountains.
A delicate pink flower brightens up a plain earthy brown background. A family of deer in a meadow. Raven in profile, closeup (somewhat).
A bee hovering over a purple flower at the beach in Morro Bay, California. The still water of a salt marsh reflects white and gray clouds in a blue sky. Sap stalactites dripping from a tree limb, translucent and silhouetted against a background of blue sky.
