A random taste of photos:
Macro of orange plants. This photo was taken by Geneva Hudspeth and put in the Creative Commons with her permission. On the left, a silvery green succulent plant of unknown species.  (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)  On the right, a dark red and green succulent groundcover plant, Sedum spurium, AKA Bronze Carpet Stonecrop. Bright orange California poppies.
Stagnant green water in a colorful salt marsh. Sunlight shines on bug-bitten veined green leaves and spider webs. 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.
A pair of snails meet on a wood post. A brightly colored kayaker paddles by tufa towers in Mono Lake. Giant yellow flower on a zucchini plant.
Strange lava formations near Dragon's Teeth, Kapalua, Maui. Yellow and orange flower. Two people cast shadows onto shallow water at the Alviso salt marshes.
Upside down jellyfish with blue tentacles. Perrine Bridge over the Snake River Canyon. Grand Canyon Supergroup - Hotauta conglomerate - 1,200 million year old rock
Bright yellow-green leaves against a clear blue sky. Tufa tower at Mono Lake. Stagnant green water in a colorful salt marsh.
A handsome grasshopper. A white, orange and black koi fish in a shallow green pond. Children playing on the shore of TJ Lake or Lake Barrett (not sure which).
Petrified logs against a cloudy blue sky. Shoshone Falls (sometimes called the Fluffy white clouds crest a hill in Idaho.
