Trail of the Sequoias
Last light on Trail of the Sequoias, a lightly-used path that meanders past Log Meadow into the less-visited depths of the Giant Forest.

Alta's Pull
The barren summit of 11,204-foot Alta Peak beckoning shortly after crossing the last straggling trees that cling to these upper slopes. Smoke was in the air making for a hazy afternoon as the Redwood Fire burned in the nearby Redwood Meadow Grove. Sequoia National Park, September 16, 2023 with my Dad.

Paradise Creek Poppies
California poppies in bloom along the Paradise Creek Trail in Sequoia National Park, as seen earlier this spring (late April, 2023). What a beautiful wildflower bloom we had this year with all the rain!

Wooden Walls of the Giant Forest
Standing in the silent strength of the Giant Forest. These trees have done well this year, being watered deeply by a record-breaking winter with the most snow the Southern Sierra has seen in decades. I feel wonderfully blessed to be able to walk in the company of these great trees which have stood many tests of time. Photo captured by me in June 2023.

California Nights
I'm back in Southern California.
Last night I spotted clouds in the west, and rushed to Shell Beach to catch the sunset. It was a beautiful evening, 70 degrees with amazing colors in the sky.

Painting with Light in Lake Tahoe
I was standing in the water when I took this picture.
With my phone on maximum brightness, I painted the word "Tahoe" in air during a 30-second exposure with my camera. This is the end result...and the best one out of at least a dozen attempts!

Pacific Valley - Big Sur
Back in May I was offered the opportunity to stay at a private ranch in Big Sur overlooking the ocean. I jumped at the chance, and spent a weekend in early June in the southern section of Big Sur. Got this photo at a beach in a hamlet called Pacific Valley, several miles south of the ranch where I stayed. It was quite a beautiful place...
