Along the Path from the Beach

Another photo from the day at the Carpinteria Bluffs here in California.  Besides the Nikon V3, I brought along the Olympus Trip 35, which is proving to be a fun little camera.  Right now, nearly all the flowers are gone except the most hardy, from seasonal and weather changes, and these cheerful yellow flowers add a bright touch to an otherwise beige, beige, beige landscape.

These weeds – oat grass? – are typical grasses in open areas of southern California.  The seed heads are sharp and stick into your socks and shoes and work their way in.  Pity the poor dog who doesn’t get these removed . . . Mother Nature’s way to ensure a new generation is propagated someplace!
