Sunset and Moonrise

Lake Tahoe, CA

Wheat?

This looks sort of like wheat. Let's call it "wild grass in winter."

Firewood

Apparently in some parts of the country, they burn these for warmth. Not merely for ambiance and that smoky smell.

Same window, different stuff

Cat in the Window

There's something about the light in winter, late afternoon, Missouri that you rarely see out here in California.

Venice at Night

Wow, I am finally uncovering the potential of Camera Raw.

Regatta

Lake Garda, Italy

SOMA

Another Magritte-inspired scene

More Dead Plants

Fall Color

Every time I take a photo like this people say stuff like, "Why are you looking at those dead leaves?" Little do they realize...

Tea

Tea Room - Beijing

Petite Pastries

If only I could go back in time and eat one...

Switch to CFLs

Monk's Boots

As seen at Tashilunpho Monastery in Shigatse, Tibet (glad I wrote that one down)

Lily Pads

More from the Conservatory of Flowers.

Solar Tradeshow

The 23rd European Union Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference in Milan, Italy

I love this photo because:
1. The giant inflatable sun is shining on the LCD solar panels (and this booth is out of control)
2. The cocky businessman in the center foreground is probably making a deal that will alter the future of the PV industry (or making plans for dinner, take your pick)
3. The Italian booth babes (in yellow) are bored out of their minds

More Carnivorous Plants

The one with the teeth is a Venus Flytrap, the other is a Sundew - the little droplets are actually a sticky glue that traps insects.

Carnivorous Plants

Pitcher plants trap insects that fall inside, then digest them and absorb the nutrients. Yum!

Cinder Cone and Field of Ashes

Well, I'm still getting the kinks worked out, but you get the idea.
