I don't expect this to score well, but I really wanted to enter a photo of these trees. Unfortunately, there's a stupid 6' fence around them, complete with barbed wire. I'm not totally satisfied with how this came out. I took a bunch and none of them was what I had in mind, but oh well.

This is an avocado orchard that was recently chopped down. The trucks, painted white, look eerily like bones. I was sad to see these trees go.

Not a very Earth Day kind of photo, is it? Oh well.
