Hiking on a fresh foggy morning in San Luis Obispo.

Bright sun rays are shining down through a break in the morning fog onto and between oak tees and a hiking trail. The trail is on the side of a steep hill with dry grass and oak trees up the hill and more oak trees with red and green poison oak on the downslope. The light illuminates the tangle of oak branches further down the trail. King trail in the Irish Hills of San Luis Obispo, California

A wooden swing hangs from an oak tree along one of the trails on Cerro San Luis Mountain with a lovely view of San Luis Obispo below.

A wooden swing is hung with blue and white nylon rope from a large oak tree off a trail on Cerro San Luis Mountain. The swing and the oak tree are on the right side of the image while the distant view of the hills and city are in the center. Dried oak leaves and grasses are in the foreground under the swing with oak trees spotted on the side of the mountain. Light brown hills of dried grass are at the base of the mountain.

A splash of autumn at the eastern base of the Sierra Nevada mountains.

Aspen trees with golden leaves are in the left foreground. The sun is shining through the leaves, backlighting the beautiful gold colors. Around the trees are bushes and sagebrush. In the background is the forested Sierra Nevada mountain range, all under a bright blue sky.

Morning fog from Cerro San Luis mountain in San Luis Obispo.

Black and white image from the edge of a forest and from half way up Cerro San Luis mountain looking down at the edge of the morning fog that is settled into the lower elevation, and is wispy at this location, To the right are oak, Monterey cypress and eucalyptus trees. To the left is a grassy field on the slope of the mountain illuminated with sun through the fog. Trees further down the mountain are more obscured by the fog. The wispy upper edge of the fog is also visible with the tops of distant mountains poking above the fog.

You need to squeeze through, over and around lots of rocks on the Bishop Peak trail in San Luis Obispo.

Two huge boulders occupy most of the image, one vertically the entire left side of the photo. There is another smaller boulder that uses just over half of the right side of the image. A hiking trail squeezes between these rocks, though in real life, it's not quite as tight as it looks in the image. Beyond the boulders are some green shrubs, and past those is the view of the green Los Osos Valley and half of Cerro San Luis mountain in San Luis Obispo, California. More mountains are in the hazy distance, and the sky is blue once you get above the haze. Small silhouetted shrubbery is in the center right edge foreground, overlapping the smaller boulder. Both boulders are in the shadow of Bishop Peak, the tallest of the Nine Sisters.

A knot of seaweed washed up onto Morro Rock Strand Beach with the Morro Bay smoke stacks in the distance.

A black and white image of a huge knotted clump of kelp seaweed washed up on Morro Rock Strand Beach. All of its "leaves" are in the foreground, then the long strands from the kelp are tangled into a large knot with more tangled kelp leaves. Off in the distance there are more piles of kelp, a sandy beach, dunes covered with vegetation, and finally the three smoke stacks from an abandoned power plant in Morro Bay. The foreground is in sharp focus, and the sea mist gives the dune and smoke stacks a more ephemeral appearance.

View of a few of the Nine Sisters from Laguna Lake Open Space in San Luis Obispo.

Four slim eucalyptus trees in the foreground are silhouetted against a bright blue sky with puffy clouds. As we look through the trees, we see hills and distant peaks that are part of what are known as the Nine Sisters in this area. They are old volcanic plugs that stretch between San Luis Obispo and Morro Rock (Morro Rock is one of the Sisters). There is a large, open, light-brown field between our location and the mountains. This is Laguna Lake Open Space. At the base of the slim trees are a bush, a wooden gate and barbed-wire fence.

Sunday is

Hiking trail in San Luis Obispo on a foggy morning.

A narrow hiking trail runs along a steep side of Cerro San Luis mountain. In the lower left corner is a steep incline of rocks and vegetation, then a narrow path to the right, and the steep mountainside continues to the right of the trail. Lower on the mountainside are oak trees and other vegetation. The morning sun is shining through the fog as it dissipates, giving an ethereal and painterly look. Patches of sun hit the vegetation in a warm glow. 'M' Trail in Cerro San Luis Obispo, California.

Undulating wavy oak tree branches in the morning fog. Due to the fog, they appear as varying shades of grey and create an abstract pattern of waviness. Cerro San Luis mountain in San Luis Obispo, California.

This morning's walk. I managed to feel about three drops of rain. πŸ˜† The clouds looked pretty at any rate. The white poles are plastic tubes protecting newly planted baby oak trees.

Dramatic clouds are trying to form thunderstorms with colors ranging from white to grey to deep blue. Distant mountains are in the shadow of the clouds, contrasting nicely against the sky and clouds. The rest of the image is an open field of dry, brown grasses and other vegetation. There are about eight white plastic tubes perpendicular to the ground. Inside are baby oak trees. The tubes protect against the wind, birds and animals. Laguna Lake Open Space, San Luis Obispo, California

Great blue heron looking for food on a tree limb overlooking Laguna Lake.

A great blue heron is standing at the end of a sparse tree branch on an overcast day. The heron is on the left side of the image and facing left while he looks out at the lake below him (not visible in image). He is grey with long wing, back, and chin feathers, and he has black markings on his shoulders, head and tip of his tail. To the right is the top of a pale green pine tree.

All together now...the trees are all leaning due to the constant strong, coastal winds.

A large group of coastal cypress trees are all leaning to the left due to the prevalent ocean breeze. They are growing in sandy soil.

Hiking trails on Cerro San Luis mountain in San Luis Obispo.

Black and white image of a hiking trail on the steep sides of Cerro San Luis mountain in San Luis Obispo, California. In the left foreground, the terrain is low, sparse grass. Further up the trail to the right, the landscape turns to taller, bushier shrubs and prickly pear cactuses. There are layers of hills ascending to the peak which is obscured by morning fog.

A nice bench to sit and enjoy the fantastical landscape of El Moro Elfin Forest near Morro Bay, California.

A wooden boardwalk leads to a wooden bench set in the middle of fantastical, extremely-twisted pygmy oak trees with lace lichen hanging from their branches. The trees are all so short due to the sandy soil and adjacent estuary in Morro Bay, California.

Kayaks for rent at Lake Tahoe, California

Colorful kayaks for rent are docked on the beach of Lake Tahoe, California. It's early in the day, so the kiosk isn't open yet. Beyond the kayaks are more beach, pine trees, then, of course, Lake Tahoe in the midst of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The sky is clear and bright blue, as is the lake. South Lake Tahoe
