california cars

Cars, it seems, last forever in California. Even though I don't think of myself as a big car person, I sometimes cannot help but be amazed by the vehicles I see on the street. There are some amazing cars here.

bees!

Ever since I wrote a post on Colony Collapse Disorder on Built Environment Blog last year, I've been obsessed with bees.

One of the perks of my Plant ID class is the chance to photograph bees. Unfortunately, they are elusive little bastards. Getting a good shot requires a quick finger on the macro button and a lot of luck.

Thanks mostly to a large number of opportunities, I've gathered enough bee photos to warrant a new flickr set: bees!
