Russian Fort Ross in California

Fort Ross, a California state historic park, was settled between 1812 and 1841 as a Russian trading post. I loved the Russian influence of the architecture especially the chapel seen in this fine art photograph. The shape and form of the turrets and steep roof have elegant lines and produced beautiful shadows. During my visit last June the site was closed for renovation, but we did walk around the perimeter of the fort. I think it gave me a unique perspective of an "outsider" looking in as we approached the fortification. Perhaps it was the same for those settlers almost 200 years ago.

Sea Dreams

A whisper soft breeze catches my hair and I push it back in place out of the way of my camera lens. The scent of sea air fills me with primal memories of safety and comfort. A bird calls sternly to her dinner as the waves gently swoosh and smack on the sandy shore. As I stand and watch the clouds change color and create dancing light upon the water. A calmness enfolds me. It lingers still.

California Coast Flowers

This fine art photograph was taken along the California coastline at Bodega Bay. I am not sure what kind of flowers these are (all suggestions are welcome), but their beautiful neon pink was such a contrast against the aqua blue landscape. Can you hear the surf, smell the spray, and feel the golden sun as you gaze into the far away horizon where water meets air?
