On the edge of Sunny Point is a great place for shore birds, but I also love the way these little grass clumps look in the water as the tide moves in and out. It's a quiet place, despite being near the airport and not far from town. July 26th, 2009.

In July you can really notice the color of the grass start to change, as with this photo of the Mendenhall Game Refuge. It's quite beautiful, and probably our best "fall colors" even though true fall is still far away. July 16th, 2009.

The stark contrast between the trees, grass and sky struck me in this photo. The land mass is know as the Mendenhall Peninsula. On the other side is Fritz Cove, and at the tip, a beautiful, undeveloped trail. August 13th, 2008.
