A random taste of photos:
Palm trees against a gloomy overcast cloudy sky. An old decrepit abandoned building in the toxic dead tree zone near Mammoth Mountain. (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. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone.
Waimea Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. A strangely shaped tufa tower at Mono Lake. Beautiful hills and wildflowers in Pacheco State Park, California.
Sunlight shines on bug-bitten veined green leaves and spider webs. Rainbow at the base of Shoshone Falls (sometimes called the Macro of natural salt.
Macro of a natural pink salt marsh. Leopard shark. Natural CO2 emissions from a magma body beneath Mammoth Mountain asphyxiated more than 100 acres of trees near Horseshoe Lake in the early 1990s.
Tufa towers at Mono Lake. Painted Desert landscape with a cloud-dotted blue sky. A fallen coconut at the mouth of the Wailua River, where it meets the Pacific Ocean.
A live cicada on my house. Interesting mountain shapes near Mammoth Lakes. Grand Canyon Supergroup - Hotauta conglomerate - 1,200 million year old rock
A male seagull, standing. Lavender flowers on a green succulent plant at the beach. Red berries and green leaves.
Yellow wildflowers lead to a pond in Pacheco State Park, California. Crystal Crag and broken rocks face off at TJ Lake or Lake Barrett (not sure which). Soaptree yucca plant at White Sands National Monument, New Mexico.
An American flag flies proudly over a patio near Morro Rock. Rocky beach in Morro Bay. Sea cave under Dragon's Teeth, Kapalua, Maui.
Marsh water curves through a colorful landscape. Perrine Bridge over the Snake River Canyon. Upside down jellyfish with blue tentacles.
