Morning shadows in the desert~Shadow Shot Sunday~021713

I took a two hour walk one day last weekend, after I recovered from my most recent round of the flu.  (Yes, I got a flu shot...sigh...).  Anyway, I love morning and late afternoon light, don't you?  Shadow Shot Sunday for February 17, 2013.  To visit Shadow Shot Sunday, please go to:   http://shadowshotsunday2.blogspot.com/

Bishop petroglyphs 2011

These have now been ruined by vandals and thieves.  We were fortunate to see them in 2011, when they were still intact.

Though an opening~Mission San Juan Capistrano~Sunday Stills Challenge~030412

I surprised myself by actually taking several photos last weekend through holes.  They were big holes, like arches and doorways, but, hey!  They count, right?  All of these are for Sunday stills Challenge for March 4, 2012.  To visit SSC, please go to:    http://sundaystills.wordpress.com/

Ocean front windows~Whimsical Windows and Delirious Doors~022712

Hubby and I traveled over to Orange County this past weekend so spend a couple of days in San Juan Capistrano.  We woke up Saturday morning and decided to drive up Pacific Coast Highway.  We stopped at Aliso Creek and I looked around at all the windows looking out onto the ocean.  Aren't they amazing?  Here in the desert, we limit our window exposure, especially in the summer months, but at the ocean, windows like these are common.  I enjoyed looking at all the windows this weekend!  Whimsical Windows and Delirious Doors for February 27, 2012.

Seagulls~SOOC Sunday~022612

Hubby and I are in San Juan Capistrano for the weekend.  It's his birthday today and he wanted to drive over to Orange County.  So, yesterday morning, we drove up the Pacific Coast highway toward Laguna Beach.  We stopped at Aliso Creek beach along the way.  There were lots of seagulls there and as we approached, they took off!  I was able to capture the chaos!  SOOC Sunday for February 26, 2012.   To visit SOOC Sunday, please go to this link:   http://www.murrieta365.com/2012/02/straight-out-of-camera-sunday_25.html
