A random taste of photos:
Macro of a bright yellow flower at the beach. Tufa towers in Mono Lake. A frame of \
Upside down jellyfish with blue tentacles. A dead tree near Horseshoe Lake. A boardwalk bridge spans the stagnant green water of a salt marsh near a colorful bank.
Looking up at a grove of tall trees. 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! A shriveling \
Yellow coneflowers (I think). Human shoeprints circle in the mud of a salt marsh. 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!
Tufa towers frame snow-dotted mountains at Mono Lake. Sign above a restroom: \ Strange and wonderful geology in the northern part of Yosemite National Park, from Hwy 120.
This fellow looks like a bee, but may be a hoverfly, AKA flower fly. Any entomologists out there are most welcome to correct me! Perrine Bridge over the Snake River Canyon. Tufa towers at Mono Lake.
Tufa at Mono Lake. A live cicada on my house. Succulent plants growing in the beach sand in Morro Bay, California.
Tufa towers frame snow-dotted mountains at Mono Lake. Still marsh water reflects faded hills within a curved shoreline. Yellow wildflowers (and some sort of flying insect) at Mono Lake.
A young woman on the boardwalk at the Alviso salt marshes. Two tall trees on a hill overlook the ocean and a clear blue sky in Laguna. Waimea Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific.
Vegetation surrounds a mossy rock. Wildflowers brighten a grove of trees in Pacheco State Park, California. High voltage tower reflected in the water of a pink salt marsh.
