tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-50515191492527270552012-02-02T17:42:44.378-08:00Welcome to my PhotoBLOG. A collection of wandering images taken on my hikes and wanderings throughout our wonderful world. I usually have one of my cameras with me when I am out wandering.... Hiking, driving to work, running errands.... I am always looking for something to photograph. These are some random images that I have collected over the years. I hope that you will enjoy them!Keith Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02751470657103248278noreply@blogger.comBlogger881100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051519149252727055.post-43271460870601440872012-01-05T16:09:00.001-08:002012-01-05T16:23:42.206-08:00<div style="text-align: center;">Winter skies over California's Napa Valley.</div><div style="text-align: center;">December 27, 2011</div><div><br /></div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ickcio9UlHs/TwY9gl2pGiI/AAAAAAAABSM/2pk_6khwr9A/s1600/IMG_4518_Sterling_winery.jpg"><img style="display:block;

You don't see the falls from the road, only a T-intersection leading into a State Park. If you blink at the wrong time you will miss the signs.... If you are observant though, you can take in this sight by stopping for just 15 minutes. It is a very short walk from the Highway to see this gem of Big Sur...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5051519149252727055-5924474036885707958?l=hikepix.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Keith Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02751470657103248278noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051519149252727055.post-90838123184886184182009-09-05T08:43:00.000-07:002009-09-05T08:55:09.435-07:00<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_10q9V17-Fyo/SqKHjsU2w8I/AAAAAAAAAJQ/EO08zGYd_6U/s1600-h/080822_craterlake_sunrise_IMG_8695.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_10q9V17-Fyo/SqKHjsU2w8I/AAAAAAAAAJQ/EO08zGYd_6U/s400/080822_craterlake_sunrise_IMG_8695.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5378009952297599938" border="0" /></a>August sunrise, Crater Lake<br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_10q9V17-Fyo/SqKHY7Lu3gI/AAAAAAAAAJI/k7xVEvMQaGQ/s1600-h/080822_craterlake_blue_trees_IMG_8722.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_10q9V17-Fyo/SqKHY7Lu3gI/AAAAAAAAAJI/k7xVEvMQaGQ/s400/080822_craterlake_blue_trees_IMG_8722.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5378009767307304450" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Looking into the caldera from the rim.<br />The still waters of Crater Lake reflect the dark blue sky perfectly.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Click on the picture and scroll down so you only see the bottom half.
