The sun was hitting this orange flower just right as it was opening up.
Opening Flower
Yellow Ginkgo
These tiny ginkgo leaves leaves looked like they hadn’t even grown to their full size, but they were already yellow and ready to fall off the tree.
Sacramento Fall Street
Scenic T Street in Sacramento looks even better in the fall. The huge old twisting trees lining the street really light it up as their leaves change.
Hummingbird
I spent a long time standing in the rain to get this shot. There were plenty of hummingbirds zipping back and forth, but they were all so fast it was hard to stay focused on one long enough to get a few shots before it was gone. I like the way this one turned out, and the way the spot on the neck of the hummingbird matches the plants.
All Beach, No Sunrise
I had high hopes of catching the one day a year where there is a clear, fog-less sunrise from China Beach in San Francisco. As you can tell I must have picked the wrong day. I decided to make the best of the early morning and was able to get some cool shots of the beach in the fog.
A Close Race
Four sailboats fight for position on San Francisco Bay. It sure looked much colder out there than it did from my vantage point on the shore!
The Dining Cave
This is part of the cave at Bella Vineyards. This empty room with a table and some dramatic lighting caught my eye, and I liked the way that this shot turned out. I thought about lounging in one of the chairs in the back until someone kicked me out, but there was to much wine elsewhere, so I had to be on my way!
Three Pots
Pretty much what the title says, there isn’t much more to say. Just three good looking pots!
California Education
The Education Building at UC Davis Medical Center. I’m sure a lot of work goes on in this building, but it looks like a pretty good place to get to work if you ask me!
Pismo Beach Pier
This photo might not make you think of Thanksgiving, but it was where I spent Thanksgiving a few years ago! The Pismo Beach Pier at sunset was a pretty great place to be.
