Blue truck

I liked the shape of this pick-up truck that I found a bit out of place in that street. Framing and composition are less than ideal though.

Zantedeschia

A single white and yellow calla lily from a San Francisco community garden. The latin name is more poetic!

After the rain

A flashback to Australia for this delicate flower, shot after one of these tropical storms that stop as suddenly as they start and leave everything soaking wet

Stairways to heaven?

The original Point Arena lighthouse's spiral staircase. The tower itself did not survive the 1906 earthquake.

Point Cabrillo

We had moody skies the whole weekend. This one serves as a nice backdrop for Point Cabrillo lighthouse.
