Elephant Seals at Aรฑo Nuevo. The pup is about one week old. These seals were once hunted nearly to extinction for their oil. Unfortunately, Avian Influenza was recently detected in the population.

About 30 harbor seals lay on a rock surrounded by rough seas and high winds that blow the ocean spray over them.  Water from previous waves runs slowly off the rocks.

Harbor Seals endure rough seas during a storm, Point Lobos State Natural Reserve, California. About an hour after this photo, the Reserve was closed for high winds.

Cliffs drop into the blue Pacific Ocean.  The Bixby Bridge, in the distance, carries cars over the creek of the same name.  In the distance, more coastal mountains.

Large blue waves of the Pacific crash into rocky pillars with white spray lifting into the air.  In the shallows, the water is green from the white sand beneath.

Garrapata State Park. California has wonderful state parks, and Garrapata is worth a visit.

A long, open shutter creates a blurred ocean below the rocky cliffs of Big Sur.  The MacWay Waterfalls drops into the beach sand near the water's edge.

Temple o Hephaestus stands bright in the sun against dark clouds.  The temple has fluted columns and a triangular pediment.  In the foreground are small cedar shrubs and discarded building stone from other ancient structures.

Russia Jails U.S. Navy Veteran for Five Years

Not sure if you saw Russia imprisoned a Navy vet while he attempted to sail around the world. I wonder how long it will take Trump to figure out Putin is not his friend.

The curved rows of stone seats at the Ancient Greek theater of Epidauros.  A theater is a semi-circle whereas a coliseum is a complete circle.

My understanding is that any mortgage rate decline from these mortgage-backed security purchases last week has been wiped out by the reported investigation of Powell. Please correct or update me.

You've likely heard of Magellan, the first man to circumnavigate the globe. Except he died in the Philippines, never completing the trip. His navigator, Sebastian ElCano, completed the voyage. A memorial stands in Cartagena, Spain. #photography #canonphotography #spain #landscapephotography
