Kara Thrace, meet Kara Danvers! Sadly, the coffee cup wasn’t from Starbucks, which would have been perfect… Full Wondercon gallery is going up at Flickr/KelsonV

Nighttime fountain at the Anaheim Convention Center (full)

Nighttime fountain at the Anaheim Convention Center. This was a popular spot for cosplay photos even after sunset, but I managed to catch an angle that looked deserted.

My full gallery of photos from WonderCon is up on Flickr. Most of them are just cosplay snapshots. This ended up being the only artistic shot I took that came out really well.

Birds of Madrona Marsh

Birds of Madrona Marsh in Torrance, California.

It’s a seasonal marsh, where the low-lying parts stay wet most of the year, but the rest dries out ever summer and floods during winter rains.

I spotted ducks, doves, geese, these black birds with bright red wings that sound like a smoke detector battery alert, this white bird that looked like it was fishing, plus dragonflies, a huge bee, and I heard (but didn’t see) frogs.

Actually the croaking frogs might have been quacking ducks in the distance, now that I think about it.

I think the white bird might be a snowy egret, and that red-winged black bird turns out to be… a red-winged blackbird. 😄

Rising above the clouds…

Rising above the clouds… I tried a lot of crops on this (otherwise it’s unmodified) but finally settled on the square because I wanted enough of both the rooftops and the sky bracketing the clouds and mountain, and I wanted to steer clear of some of the foreground buildings that would have appeared on the sides and break up the layout
