Oak Tree at Dawn
Fair Oaks, California
Dawn provides the opportunity for a dramatic transition between night and day such as in the scene pictured here. This magnificent oak, with roots dangling over the river bluff, has always drawn my attention. This particular day, morning and night were both present for this one moment.

As one of the most biodiverse areas in the world, California's natural beauty has the capacity to inspire. A lifetime can be spent exploring its varied landscapes including oceans, rivers, mountains, deserts, wetlands, and old growth forests. California is one of only five regions of the world with a Mediterranean climate, and harbors more unique plants and animals than any other state. Rapid population growth and associated development threaten the survival of many of the state's unique lands, inland and coastal waters and native species.
