Sometimes distance is better, and sometimes a close view is interesting. The Fall colors with the Aspens in the foreground, then the pine trees, and finally the sky makes a different composition. Fun to view, and fun to photograph.

Aspen color

On the way from Lee Vining to Tahoe, we took a few side roads to check for color. This lonely tree was tilted, and a little weary looking, but the sun on the leaves was surprising and quite interesting.

Magnolia by the Marina

I took a  very early walk by the San Diego Marina one morning a couple of weeks ago.

There were 2 or 3 of these trees in bloom, and fortunately one of them had blooms low enough to photograph with my 50mm lens.

I had never seen such an interesting grouping on a single petal.

California Color

Lee Vining Canyon Sunday October 19th.

Yosemite was still very green,
The road to Mono Lake was
green until we came to the
valley just outside Lee Vining.

Amazing color in the canyon.

Pismo Waves

Quick snapshot taken on the beach at Pismo, Ca.

Quiet morning, nice waves, and a peaceful way to start the day for all concerned.

A little bit of watercolor effect added for fun!

Dinner with a View!

Last night in San Diego.
