more from the spring wildflower backlog

Spring in (where else?) Lockwood

Owl's clover and calicoflower. The blue part isn't water,
it is really Downingia cuspidata growing in a vernal pool that has already dried

Midweek bonus photo

Two surprises about these guys: they can cover ground pretty fast and when you look closely at them, they are fuckin filthy.

Carrizo Plain I

After a winter with a decent amount of rain, it is definitely worth a springtime visit to the Carrizo. I have a lot more pictures from my few hours here. Hopefully I'll get them edited soon

Soda Lake

Shell Creek

This place was just lousy with photographers... a couple dozen at the very least. Unfortunately, this is the place where my lens started really going on the fritz... and I didn't figure out what was going on until later that day, so I didn't get nearly as many good shots as I wish I had. I'll just have to come back another spring.

Excuses, excuses

I know I've been a flake about this lately, but I have some pretty good reasons: my computer died and my favorite camera lens is barely working... and it has taken some time to get the new computer up to speed (I hate the bastard). Oh, and I've been hemorrhaging money on my car, too. (Never fear, it's nothing unexpected or drastic. Expensive, though).

With one thing and another, I'm just not feeling like spending time editing photos. In fact, I haven't even installed photoshop on the new computer yet.

So to all my fans (all three of them) I'll try to get back to this soon. -V
