Zinnia elegans
I’ve been posting a lot of images of roses lately, but I think that zinnias are my favorite flower — and today I stumbled upon a whole garden full of them — including one determined plant growing wild in a patch of dried weeds, just across the street.
Salmons and pinks
Morning solitude
For me, mornings are absolutely the best time to be at Lake Natoma — whether I’m up near Lake Natoma Crossing or down at the other end, near Nimbus Dam. Sometimes it’s hard for me to get myself out of the house, but once I’m outside, I always feel better.

Red sky in the morning
The sunrise that greeted me this morning shone blood-red over Lake Natoma, thanks to smoke from distant wildfires. It was an impressive but sobering sight.
Tres hermosas
All three of these gorgeous roses belong to my neighbor down the street. She puts so much time and effort into her garden that even when I’m not having a great day, I can’t resist stopping to take pictures!
