Dead Fish Photo Collection

Posted
This is rather a macabre collection of photos this time round. Last weekend when I was walking along the San Diego Creek close to my home here in Irvine, California, I came across a large area of dead fish that had been washed up onto the bank of the river when the river level rose last week because of some rain. The fish apparently were stranded in a pool of water which quickly evaporated and left them high and dry.

See the full dead fish photo collection on my Facebook page.

I also posted some video of the dead fish on YouTube.

Posted
The fly in the ointment, Opito Bay, around 2007. This post was originally published in November, 2007. Almost two decades on, the photograph and the argument both feel — if anything — more relevant than they did then. I have updated this post lightly in May, 2026, some 19 years later! The Photograph I was on holiday in Opito Bay on New Zealand's Coromandel Peninsula, sitting on the couch in the place we were staying at. A friend's iPod was resting on the coffee table, on top of a copy of The Economist from March 2005, whose cover story happened to be titled "The Real Digital Divide."

Anza-Borrego Wildflowers

Posted
Anza Borrego Desert State Park California Wildflowers This cluster of wildflowers is typical of the flowers in Plum Canyon in Anza-Borrego Desert this spring. Because of the dry and harsh environment, most of the flowers are tiny like the three in this photo. But what they lack in size, they make up for in color. It's pretty difficult to try and identify all these flowers, but I'm pretty sure the white one is Desert Pincushion. Help out if you can. I've been using the CalFlora.org website to try and identify the flowers in this series.
