A photo from an evening outing to La Jolla’s Hospital Point. The sunset was rather disappointing, but the mood at the blue hour was nice.
Blue Hour at the Bluffs of Scripps Coastal Preserve
The bluffs of Scripps Coastal Preserve are a small pocket of undeveloped coastal mesa just south and above Black’s Beach (south Torrey Pines State Beach).

Low Tide at Sunset Cliffs
I was hoping to re-create an older photo with flowers that I made at Sunset Cliffs, but the flowers weren’t out yet. It was a rather low tide though and the ocean was very calm. I quite like how the water movement turned out in this 8 second long exposure.
Sunset with Seafoam at Cardiff State Beach (5 photos)
After the heavy rains in January, a lot of foam built up on the coast. We went to South Cardiff State Beach for a walk with our dog Toni and it almost looked like it had snowed at the beach.

Dos Coyotes
Two coyotes in morning light at Lake Hodges. I also liked the soft colors in the landscape as it reawakens with first signs of fresh green after some winter rains.
Winter Views from Palomar Mountain
A winter scene from Palomar Mountain on Christmas Day. We drove around to play in the snow – just like everybody else… 😉
Leavitt/Sonora/Dunderberg (7 photos)
After the morning stop at Mono Lake we continued further north on Highway 395. We hiked a bit at Leavitt Meadows and then drove up Sonora Pass Road. On the way back we had late lunch in Bridgeport and then briefly stopped at Dunderberg Meadows again – I was hoping to get better photos of the fall colored Aspens, backlit while the sun was still higher. The sun was a bit too low for that already actually.
Morning at Mono Lake (3 photos)
We stopped at the Mono Lake Tufa State Natural Reserve on the sixth day of our Eastern Sierra Trip. The water was really calm that morning as the wind hadn’t picked up yet.
Sunset at Dunderberg Meadows (3 photos)
The clouds that began to move in towards the end of our Red Cones hike looked promising so we went out for sunset. I had fond memories of Dunderberg Meadows and the colorful Aspen trees there. I was hoping to be able to combine them with a colorful sunset!
Red Cones (5 photos)
The Red Cones are a volcanic landscape feature near Mammoth Lakes, more or less along the John Muir and Pacific Crest Trail. We hiked there from Horseshoe Lake via McLeod Lake after a brief stop at the Twin Lakes Overlook and Lake Mamie.
