A Geological Potpourri977 viewsThe color bands and splotches seen in the previous picture are reproduced on a grander scale on this mountainside.

Pocked Rock955 viewsI saw a lot of rocks with little round plugs or knots like the one in this picture - wonder how this happens?
|
|

Wetland, sort of940 viewsUpon reaching the canyon floor, I found it to be covered with a dense thicket of reeds and long grass, fed by a small spring.
|
|

Rock Patterns928 viewsLots of interesting striations, dribbles and splotches in these varicolored rocks. Looks like someone spilled white paint over some of them.

Sweets923 viewsMost of the parade participants threw goodies to the kids, who scooped them up eagerly - as did their parents.

Picnic Spot906 viewsA lovely shady spot in the midst of a burning desert, coplete with table, perfect for a picnic in the company of a companiable canine.

Comet 2020/F3 NEOWISE905 viewsConditions for photographing Comet NEOWISE from my observatory near Anza, California were less than ideal. The comet was visible only in the northwest for a couple hours after sunset, at most, which put it squarely in the Los Angeles light dome. Another factor involved was the inexperience of the photographer - I hadn't done any night shooting with my DSLR before and I never got the camera focused properly, so the stars came out somewhat bloated and fuzzy. They also show some coma, I don't know why. But at least the comet itself came out reasonably well.

Contraption, at rest898 viewsAnother take on the one that was in the parade.

Pahrump Trikers896 viewsThese guys had some radical rides.

Is this really the way?894 viewsKind of looks like a dead-end up ahead. We press on regardless.
