The River Revisited

August 29, 2026  •  Leave a Comment
Earlier this century I did a series of images involving the Los Angeles River. That turned into a show... ...Out of curiosity I just spent some time rooting around through those images and found a few that hadn't made the cut back then, that I liked better this time around. Here are a few of them. The power lines follow the river... P...

The Beach

Two weeks ago I spent two weeks in Oregon. Here are some images... An old growth remnant... A beach view... This looked like a rock outcrop from the western desert...on the beach... Cliche of the day...Wine Dark Sea... Sunset on the dunes... A calmer finish... Next year I want to spend a month u...

Return of Joshua

July 10, 2026  •  Leave a Comment
A few more images from the Joshua Tree hunt. A bit of drama to start with... I like the rocks behind the tree almost as much as the tree... The Joshuas assume amazing shapes Trouble is, in the future the species maybe getting ready to leave... It'll be interesting to go find some of these specimens again next year, af...

Joshua Rides Again

June 25, 2026  •  Leave a Comment
I spent three days in the eastern Mojave a couple of weeks ago. I'd found a promising spot on Google earth, near the Ward Valley and east of 29 Palms. From the satelite image it looked like Joshua Trees on a sand dune. That seemed wrong, given the trees like higher altitude and a cooler climate than you find at the bottom of a desert valley. I want...

A few more plants

May 25, 2026  •  Leave a Comment
Plants of various kinds have had my attention lately. I guess it has to do with spring, spring flowers and all that good stuff. Here are three more, no flowers this time. Enjoy. Bismark Palm (I think)... Blue Agave... Sage Nice to get back to Black & White.... Click on an image to isolate it...

Spring Flowers

May 19, 2026  •  Leave a Comment
Went for a short walk down the Arroyo on Sunday. Spring flowers were doing their thing. Above and below, Matilija Poppies... And a Nasturtium, probably escaped from one of the homes nearby... And some Showy Penstemon (I love that the name includes "showy", it is kind of flash)... Thats it for toda...

Goodness Goats

April 18, 2026  •  Leave a Comment
There's a wild bit of land at the edge of Pasadena known as the Arroyo Seco. It's kept as a park but it's ungroomed. The city has come up with a "new" way to clean up the brush (fire prevention), they brought in a heard of goats to munch their way through it weeds and overgrown vegetation and all. By and large a handsome group of beasts!...

No Kings Pasadena, March 2026

March 30, 2026  •  Leave a Comment
It's been a long 10 months. I've finally settled on a new camera system, needed something lighter to lug around than my old Nikon's. They sold for a good price and I reinvested in a small light mirrorless system. A Fujifilm X-E5. (Look it up if you're a camera person). So last Saturday, the new camera and I went for a walk with the No Kings demon...

Los Angeles Palms

February 05, 2025  •  Leave a Comment
One of the most overworked images from Los Angeles is the Palm Tree. Here are a few more: I'll probably find a few more before I get these out of my system. Thanks for looking. Click on an image to isolate it on the screen.

A Friday Walk

October 23, 2024  •  Leave a Comment
The last post to the site was all about a walk up Mt. Wilson, part of the San Gabriel range behind Pasadena. This is is another walk, but a different bit of the world. We took a short trip the the Lower Engadine, a valley in eastern Switzerland, close to the Austrian and Italian boarders. The scenery offers a bit of a contrast... An early...
