Almost Spring

It is starting to look like spring around SLO county.  We really need more rain to bring out the spring wildflowers, though.

Spring Oak Trees, Templeton

Gracie that cat was feeling like posing last night; she rarely stays still long enough for a photo.  I captured this available light photo of her in her full winter fuzzyness.  Spring shedding season is just around the corner!!

Gracie looks lovely in her winter fur coat.

Cambria and San Simeon Landscapes

Hills Behind Cambria, CA

Van Gordon Road, San Simeon, CA

I spend the Monday holiday on the coast near Cambria and took advantage of some high clouds to photograph the Santa Lucia range behind Cambria and San Simeon. I wanted the photos to look more like water color paintings, so I processed them through a photo painting program. I like the final results.

Old Water Wagon - Highway 58

I made the first trip of the year Sunday out to Eastern San Luis Obispo county in search of wildflowers. I found 1 tidy tip, and a few baby blue eyes. But mostly dry conditions and blue skies Just sittin' here hoping and waiting for the rain to come.

Cat Posters

I created these posters to help promote cat adoptions. Most of the pictures are of my animal friends at the North County Humane Society in Atascadero.
