Weekend Reflections - Mountain Lake

The morning sun falls on South Lake at Estrella Mountain Ranch.

You can see more reflections at James' Newtown Area Photo.

Reflecting on...

bees.

All Things Being Equal

I’d rather be here right now.

Along the 17 Mile Drive between Monterey and Pebble Beach in California. Taken with my camera phone - unedited and one of my favorite photos of the entire trip even though I had THREE different types of real cameras with me.

Go figure. I guess you could say this camera phone was equal to the task at hand.

Please visit our friends at Theme Thursday for more takes on "Equal".

Desert Waterfall

A rare and welcome sight here in the desert, this is a waterfall at a local West Valley recreational area near the Estrella Star Tower.

This is another photo taken with a 38mm Diana lens mounted on a Nikon D40.

Watery Wednesday

I love seeing the little balls of water cascade over the edge of this fountain.
I took the shot at night without a tripod...we'll just call the shake artistic.

Mermaid

I'm so lucky my daughter is patient enough to let me play around with my photography around her.

There Be Trolls Here...

I don't see Billy Goat Gruff, but I'm pretty sure there is a troll living under this little bridge.

Water Is Our Life Blood

Since before recorded history, water and irrigation have made this valley habitable for man. 

Splish, Splash, I Was Takin' a Bath

I love to watch the birds taking baths. Even when it seems way

too cold to me, they seem to enjoy it so much.

Of course, it's hard to tell what kind of bird he is from this shot.
