overlook 7x5.5

This is the view of the American River Canyon from the Auburn Dam Overlook. There isn't actually a dam here. Construction started in the late seventies or early eighties but was discontinued for various reasons. I don't mind. I like the canyon.

oriental poppy 5.5x7

These flowers are just huge compared to California Poppies and they are so bright that they almost look fake. I'd like to thank Pollyanna Redman for bringing me this cool specimen.
