Rainbow of Christ

Sangre de Cristo when translated to english means, “Blood of Christ.” See more of my New Mexico pictures. Tweet

Rio Grande Gorge

Visiting the Rio Grande Gorge wasn’t in my plans initially but since I got rained out of Taos my options were to either sleep the rest of the day away or drive to the gorge and just take a look regardless if I took any photos or not. It turned out to be a good [...]

Clearing Winter Storm, Mount Baldy

The San Gabriel Mountains is not really a great place to shoot wide-angle landscapes since there is so many signs of human development all around. By zooming in with a telephoto lens however I can focus on the nice areas such as Mount Baldy summit. See more of my Mount Baldy pictures. Tweet

Lake Elsinore Wildflowers

A storm just passed through so naturally the poppies weren’t open but even then I think this year’s wildflower bloom at Lake Elsinore is pretty mediocre so far compared to what I have seen in the past. A couple cars passed by probably realizing the same thing so they didn’t get out of the car. [...]

Wind Wolves Preserve

The Wind Wolves Preserve is a beautiful tract of land owned by the Wildlands Conservancy. The entrance area resembles a landscape from Montana with the large fields of wildflowers leading up to the green foothills. Then up here in the canyon I heard loud croaking sounds from what sounded like hundreds of toads in the [...]

Kern County, California Wildflowers

There are huge fields of spring wildflowers (mainly lupine here) blooming in Kern County. I took a lot of photos but unfortunately when I looked at the files at 100% there is a blurry streak across many of them. My polarizer apparently picked up some grease while I was out here shooting and I failed [...]

The Blooming Chino Hills

First of all I wanted to thank those of you who attended my Sierra Club nature photography presentation on Wednesday night. It was a great audience with a lot of enthusiasm. I was flattered with the warm reception I received and had a great time meeting lots of new people. Moving backward a few days [...]

New Camera and Lens

My first stop in the morning was the Palm Springs Air Museum. My card was full so I clean off the memory card as usual. Well my “full charge” of camera battery all of the sudden went down to one cell. Two photos later it was dead. No problem. I figured I’d go back to [...]

American White Pelicans

30% of the world’s remaining population of American White Pelican live off of the Salton Sea. It is not just fish that are impacted by the increasing salinity of the lake but an entire ecosystem is at risk. Tweet

Salton Sea Icons

The dead oak trees are probably the most photographed landscape in the Salton Sea. I had always wondered where they were located, thinking perhaps I missed them along the wildlife refuge shoreline on my first visit. This time I was just randomly driving all over the place not even looking for them when magically they [...]
