D116: Reflections

    While driving home today, I saw this pool of water with the reflection of the fence.  Thought it would make a nice pic of the day.

D115: Rainbow Ends

Today, I went to the  Colusa Wildlife Refuge with my local meet-up group to photograph Snow geese.  When we got there, most of the road was under water due to 6 days of rain.  We then decided to go to the Sacramento National Wildlife refuge.  Here, we were able to take the auto tour. I saw lots of birds including snow geese, hawks, deer and coyotes.  As we came around  the bend, I look up in the sky and saw one end of a rainbow.  I thought cool, second one this week and continue on with the tour. Came around the other bend and there in the sky was the other end of the rainbow.  There was no pot of gold at either end so,  I played the lottery on the way home.  

I took both images and stitch them together in lightroom

D57: I am Blessed

  I decided to spend the day in silence (as much as possible) just reflecting on my life and all the blessings I have received.  I took a walk along the Emeryville waterfront watching the sunset.  I thought of all the things I'm truly thankful for:

My Health
My Family
Good Friends
My Freedom
This sunset 
This Life

I am truly blessed.

D54: View from across the Pond

Driving along highway 29 in Vallejo I notice this pool of water and the reflection from the apartment building.  I thought it would make a nice picture of the day.
