I hiked the new Copeland Creek Trail at Crane Creek Regional Park today. It goes from Crane Creek over the hill to Petaluma Hill Road near SSU Receiving. A few of the views below. A great addition to Crane Creek Regional Park! #Sonoma #Parks #photography #CraneCreek #CopelandCreek

A curving trail cut into the hillside. In the background is the city of Rohnert Park and the Sonoma State University campus. On the right are native California oak trees.

A rocky uphill slope with several trees.

Looking back to the East, the yellowish streak of the trail, some oaks with vineyards and then up to Sonoma Mountain.

A wide curving downhill trail with a woman pushing a carriage. Uphill is rocky and their is dry grassland on the right side of the trail.

We flew into Lisbon where we encountered the new EU Entry-Exit-System. Only 5 of 16 machines were working at the time. We spent over 2 hours in line for the EES & then 40 minutes for Passport control. Don't go there if you can avoid it. #EES #Lisbon

Watching the CNN hosts talking about the visceral feeling of the very loud sound as Artemis II launched reminded me of Feb 24, 2011 when I was a NASA guest at the last launch of the Discovery - STS-133. 3 miles away and the sound is something you never forget. #Canon #Artemis #photography #launch

I photographed this from 3 miles away. The Discovery Space Shuttle, attached to its huge orange tank, rises on a bright flame from the launch tower. Blue water in the foreground leads to green trees. Above the trees is the exhaust clouds. To the left the clouds begin to wrap over the cooling water tower.

Diane Arbus birthday today and current events reminded me of this photo she took in 1967 of a boy in a straw hat waiting to march in a pro-war parade in NYC.

Monochrome photo by Diane Arbus in 1967. Boy wearing white straw hat, white shirt, unbuttoned suit jacket and diagonally striped bow tie. He is holding an American flag on the right. On his right lapel is a small white button with the words "Bomb Hanoi." On his left lapel he has a small bow of an American flag. Below it is a large button with "God Bless America" on the top, a black triangle with white lettering and the words "support our troops." There are 2 stars on each side of the triangle and the word Viet Nam split by the triangle at the bottom of the button.

Happy Monday! Care to come along and enjoy the blue skies at terminal velocity? #Photography 📷 📸 #fotografía #foto #BlueSkyMonday #skydiving

There's a Twin Otter turboprop aircraft in the upper right from which two skydivers have just jumped. There is a bit of flare from the sun in the upper left. The skydiver in the lower left is wearing a black parachute pack with a bright orange handle that's used to deploy his parachute. He is wearing a red, white and blue jump suit with red and blue striped "grips" on his upper arms and along his legs. These provide handles for other skydivers when doing formation work in freefall.

It was a dingy overcast day so I took my Leica M10 Monochom out on a short hike around Crane Creek. The focus was the gnarly old oaks in the park. #BlackAndWhite #Photography 📷 📸 #Leica #fotografía #foto #Monochrome #SonomaCountyParks

Big old oak tree with lichen hanging from its branches. Two hikers walking away on a trail to the left. The ground is mostly grasses with a fallen tree limb in the foreground.

Grassland and a fence in the foreground and a large twisted oak stands in the middle. A bare vineyard rises on a hill behind the oak tree.

My neighbor lost one of his oaks like that when it split and half of it fell on to the road. We didn't lose any trees, but I filled up the garden cart with all the branches that fell on the property near the house. My unofficial rain gauge indicated a total of 9" of rain in the past 7 days.
