New Year's Reflection

After a long night of New Year’s celebrating, many of you probably woke up to a sunrise similar to this. Fear not, this is only a sunset photo reflected through a glass door. This effect brings to mind the many possibilities that 2019 can present to each of us. You just need to choose the path that best supports all that you wish to accomplish. I wish you well in a new start to a new year!

Blood Smoke Sunset

The heavy smoke from the many fires burning throughout California presented a blood red sunset today.

Sun Horizon

And the sun looked just like a big explosion when touching the ocean horizon.

A New Dawn

Entranced

Fire in the Sky

My heart goes out to all my fellow Californians who have lost everything to the raging fires. The sky was very smoky today and the Sun an eerie glow.

Eerie Day

This smoky scene was captured along the Deschutes River in Bend, Oregon.

Summer Solstice

A perfect day for the Summer Solstice to arrive with a high of 107°F (42°C).

Raging Sunset

Nature is quite amazing!

My Sunshine

You are my sunshine!

Sunny Walk

This is what happens when I squat down to take that so-called perfect shot only to find out later I must have been more focused on not falling over to one side. Oh well! Now it looks like one of those cool angle shots.

Daybreak

I wanted to take a photo of Comet 45P but my stupid (not me) alarm clock was not set correctly. Now you just get this sunrise pic instead. Good morning everyone!

Palapas Sunset

Enjoyed a beautiful sunset from the outdoor patio of Palapas Restaurant & Cantina in Aptos, CA. It was a nice afternoon hanging out with family.

Sloughouse Sunset

View of sunset from Sloughhouse, CA.

One Last Glow

The sky gives one last glow before nightfall takes its place.

Orange Glow

Normally I don't like having power lines in my photos but I had to make an exception in this case. I love the symmetry of the wires.

Beautiful Sunset

Amazing clouds this evening made for an awesomes sunset.

Sunset Colors

This was the sunset as seen from Folsom yesterday. I literally jumped out of my vehicle, grabbed my camera and started taking photos. Minutes later it was just a colorful memory.

Sunset at Speedboat Beach

Witnessed a beautiful sunset with my family surrounded by large rocks at Speedboat Beach, Lake Tahoe.

Blood Sunrise

Here's another photo of the Sun rising this morning. It was just popping up where the layer of smoke was at its thickest giving the Sun a blood red color.

Smokey Sunrise

Summer in California can mean smoke trapped in the valley for several days from distant fires. This can sometimes lead to some colorful sunrises.

Silhouette Sunset

A New Day!

A wonderful sunrise on the first day of a three-day holiday weekend!

Beautiful Morning

Here’s the morning sun I was greeted with when I looked out my bedroom window this morning. Such a beautiful way to start the day!
