When hiking in the mountain forest in Foret Falls, CA, I was surprised to find this cactus plant. It looked kind of out of place among the pines and cedars! 2/10/21 www.sparhawkphotography.com
When I was out shooting the moon the other day, as I got back home, the moon had risen to the point it was showing through the trees. By then the snowy mountains were golden from the sunset. There's something about a full moon that gets me every time I see one! 1/30/21 www.sprhawkphotography.com
When birding out at Salton Sea, driving along a stretch of the sea wall, I saw this view of the edge of the sea. It was windy, and this caused a mass of ripples across the surface of the shallow water, and it was all sparkling in the sun. This shot doesn't really capture the sparkle, but it does show the ripple effect. Years ago, the water would have extended way off into the distance; the water has receded greatly, affecting the quality of the water and, of course, the bird populations. 1/5/21 My website; www.sparhawkphotography.com
