Heat
Description
It was 105 degrees out the day I shot this which is not unusual for summer in the Inland Empire. The good thing is the heat produced some nice clouds to break up the usual clear blue skies. So I went up hwy 38 to Forest Falls to shoot Mill
Creek
again.

Seeds of Life
Description
Another shot from San Jacinto Wildlife Area. I saw this dry

bed and thought it would make a nice lead-in. The new grass (or whatever it is) also looked great. So I started shooting this in overcast light but the sun peeked in below the clouds and showered this area with this awesome light.
