		Note: These are digital photographs I snapped using a Sony Mavica digital still camera (MVC-FD-88) with built-in digital zoom (telephoto). Feel free to use them as you will. If you use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me. Note: These are thumbnail previews. To see a full-size high-resolution version of a particular photograph click on the "thumbnail" image. You will see the full image in a separate window.



		Botanicals this week... Many who read this magazine live in cold places where they have actual winters. Not out here. Azaleas in bloom on a rainy Christmas day in Carlsbad, California, along with a daylily underneath.... A few days after Christmas, a "rocket" in a front yard in Beverly Hills, and "Bird of Paradise" in another - and an odd tangerine colored rose in a third... Native items in Franklin Canyon - purple sage, and there's reason when it blooms they call it Cottonwood. And of course the native grasses where the white duck hides. As they say, "Only in L.A." ________________________ From the home page of the last issue: Christmas decorations over Hollywood Boulevard, with a local theme, on the Sunday just before Christmas. This is the center of Hollywood, across the street from Musso and Franks, a few blocks west of Hollywood and Vine.
