Found in Kaulille on a leave in the garden on grass.
Two photos merged in photoshop for the focus. I could only get two shots from this springtail and than it was gone...
Found on an early morning photography wander around the local lake to test out my 2x lens teleconverter.
Found this little fella at the top of my street... i thought then that it looked so much better than the plain wall that would be there otherwise then saw the stencil later and just blended the two on photoshop.. i like the result... thanks to whoever is decorating the place with a little food for thought :) The texture for "where did all the days go" is the cracked wall.
I am looking after our friend's dog while he is away. He's an old and a very shy dog, a Cocker Spaniel and Poodle mix. I defrost his homemade pattie which looks like some meat and rice combo, put it in his bowl and change his water. He has a doggie door to let himself out. The only way I knew the dog was there is afterwards I found the bowl empty. It seemed mean to feed him and then leave him in the empty house, so I went in the garden and had a rest from my dog caring task. A short time later the dog came outside and sat under a chair. As long as I stayed in the hammock he stayed outside with me. When I got up, he ran in the house. So, I stayed in the hammock and we enjoyed each other's wary company.

Abalone Cove, Lost Whale Inn
The most beautiful and special inn I have ever had the opportunity to stay at on the California coast
After a pretty dull dawn, the Sun found the gap on the horizon and gave us (a couple of other photographers were there) a show. I’ve been doing this a long time now and you just can’t ever tell what will happen. Show up and wait.

Found this rose on the beach and used it as a prop...i'd love to say this is where I found it...but alas no!

I have been determined to find this crazy rock formation nicknamed the King-Of-Wings for several years. I've seen a few photos of it and wanted desperately to find it. It is the most obscure thing I have ever found. This hoodoo seems to somehow defy the laws of physics and gravity. (no, this is not photoshopped) Who knows how much longer this thing will keep standing. I really wanted to document it before it collapses.
A lot of research went into this. It's not in Bisti Badlands as I had previously thought. It's about 10 miles south of that in another badlands called Ah Shi Sle Pah (yes, really) The badlands around Bisti stretch out for about 20 miles. Trying to find one particular rock formation amidst that 20 miles is like quite literally finding a needle in a haystack. It was about a four mile hike from the nearest road. (when I say road, I mean a few tire tracks thru the desert) The road abruptly ended at a cliff going down to a great big wash. From there it was on foot for about four miles putting 100% faith in my GPS, climbing through washes and under fences. It's difficult blindly following a little dot on a GPS screen, especially when the GPS keeps telling you to go left, when your instincts are telling you to go right. I could see a bunch of badlands off to the right, but the direction I was heading was nothing but dead grass and sagebrush. Eventually the GPS won, as I came over a hill and, lo and behold, there was a few miles of badlands ahead. As soon as I saw those badlands, I was elated. I knew the GPS must be right. This formation was in there. I knew it. Scaling down a cliff into the badlands was a challenge.
So… I found it! This is one of the scariest hikes I have ever done. Not that it was dangerous or challenging. Just scary putting 100% faith in a dot on a GPS screen. Scary knowing that if the battery on the GPS dies, I have almost no chance of ever finding my way back to my truck which was parked in the middle of the desert about 15 miles from the nearest paved road. Scary that if I did have a problem, I had absolutely no cell phone signal. Even scarier that by the time I found this thing, it was only an hour before sunset, and I had hiked over two hours to find it. I REALLY didn't want to try to find my truck in the dark. There is no moon right now, so it would be REALLY dark! I shot this quickly and started heading back immediately. Luckily I was able to find a much more direct route back, and did manage to find my truck shortly after sunset.
