Lone Tree
I’ve seen a lot of Christmas trees on curbs around LA, waiting to be collected and recycled. But this one, still standing in a field used to sell trees prior to the holiday, struck me.

World Ocean Day
Photos taken in Venice Beach, CA.

Protecting our oceans is vital; huge kudos to those who make it their mission to do so, like the fine folks who work for Heal the Bay and Surfrider.
