Imperial Valley Birds, Lots of Them

Around the Salton Sea you could pretty much look in any direction and see birds in mass quantity whether in the water, flying in air or in the agricultural fields of the Imperial Valley. I had to photograph these birds from in the car leaning across the passenger side with my tripod wedged between the [...]

Wave Break

On Shore Wave Break, Laguna Beach, California There were 7 – 9 foot swells and at this place the waves break on shore so it was exciting to say the least. There was a big minus tide at 2:30 but by the time I took this photo it was nearing hide tide which was at [...]

Liquid Amber

Fallen Liquid Amber Leaf Death can be a beautiful thing. Most of the leaves had fallen from the liquid amber trees at Glendora Centennial Heritage Park. The week before I looked over the chain link fence and noticed that the foliage was at peak color. I longed for an opportunity to photograph it but the [...]

Moonstone Beach Rocks

Moonstone Beach Rocks, Cambria, California A close-up photo of the rocks at Moonstone Beach. Some of them are as smooth as glass I’m guessing because of the friction from washing ashore continuously. www.rwongphoto.com Morro Bay pictures Tweet

Moonstones, Cambria

Moonstones at Moonstone Beach, Cambria, California One moment of my childhood that sticks in my mind was throwing rocks into the Pacific Ocean as the summer sun set along the California Central Coast. My family and I were staying across the street at a motel along Moonstone Drive so we were all out there just [...]

Exposed Monterey Shale Along Coastline, Montana de Oro State Park, California This is the seascape version yesterday’s blog post of the monterey shale rock. This was actually my 5th visit to Montana de Oro but my first time walking to the tip of the Bluff trail. I’m glad that I did because this area is [...]

Monterey Shale, Montana de Oro SP

Eroded Monterey Shale Bedrock, Montana de Oro State Park, California Montana de Oro SP has some very interesting rock formations along the shoreline. They look like large fins but they are the result of seismic activity pushing the rock above the water and eroding over time from the waves and wind. It was a struggle [...]

Gladstone Park Fall Foliage

Gladstone Park Fall Foliage, Glendora, California It was quite foggy outside two hours ago. There is still some fog but mainly just overcast. www.rwongphoto.com See more Glendora pictures. Tweet

Nojoqui Falls

Male Hiker Holding Baby at Nojoqui Falls, Santa Barbara County, California I just got back from Morro Bay earlier today where I had been since Friday. Nojoqui Falls County Park was the first place that I stopped off at on Friday. Since it had rained pretty hard the day before on Christmas, I figured that [...]

Cap Rock, Joshua Tree NP

Cap Rock, Joshua Tree National Park, California Often flying under the radar in Joshua Tree due to the name of the park, are the unique rock formations throughout the northern portion of JTNP. I always get a laugh out of seeing Cap Rock because I find it “cute”. See more of my Joshua Tree National [...]
