Cee’s Odd Ball Challenge — Odd Rocks
Cee’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge: May 21, 2017.
Proud as a…
When visiting the Folsom Zoo Sanctuary, you’ll soon discover that pea fowl — mostly the males — are in charge of running the place and spend all their time proudly walking inspection throughout the park. One may escort you patiently along the path… or help keep you from inadvertently dropping off to sleep with its raucous and penetrating calls. Be sure […]
Crossing Lake Natoma
I’m not the only one who enjoys hanging out near Lake Natoma’s three bridges in the mornings. My first image was taken while standing on the 1893 pedestrian bridge, looking downstream. The second image is from the same bridge, looking upstream. And my final image was taken below the newest bridge, the Lake Natoma Crossing — if you look carefully […]
Cat napping, Part 3
Last December I got some pretty nice shots of some Sumatran tigers at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. They live in a fairly large, almost jungle-like enclosure but have to put up with great numbers of humans gawking at them every day as they lurk and pace: The Folsom Zoo Sanctuary is much smaller; the animals’ quarters are well […]

The Adventure Continues… Terra Cotta

So I was very surprised when I first saw this episode of California’s Gold to realize there is such an important and historical company located there. From the Brooks Brothers emblem to light standards for a bridge […]

All One Color
The theme of Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is All One Color. …please no black and white or sepia tones. I would like to photos with basically one color to them. You can show a building or partial building, a flower, close up of statues or wood. Have fun with this challenge. Use your imagination for this theme.
