Fine art photograph of an ancient wind-tortured cypress (Cupressus macrocarpa) encrusted with orange alga (Trentepohlia aurea v. polycarpa). Decades of fierce winds and salt spray have humbled, but not broken, this tough old warrior.

Trentepohlia aurea v. polycarpa, the non-parasitic alga that’s colonized the branches, thrives in salt spray and actually prefers to grow on surfaces exposed to the ocean winds. It is rich in beta carotene, which accounts for its rather creepy orange pigment.

The alga also spreads in swathes across rocky ocean-side cliffs where the wind tears off huge flat hunks and sends them sailing up to land on the headlands, where they look exactly like dirty shag carpets from the 70’s!

I'm a native coastal Californian transplanted to the foothills of the Cascades. Being near the mountains has afforded me the opportunity to become attuned to seasonal rhythms and infuse that sense of time and place into my nature photography. I love to take off on roads less traveled, especially when it means losing myself in some remote place until I feel like being found. My portfolio includes natural landscapes, wildlife portraits, botanical macros, vintage architecture, cool geological formations, ranch life and a sprinkling of eccentric oddities that captured my imagination. I invite you to take a moment to peruse my galleries and follow me on Twitter: @EclecticImages. I hope you'll find something that makes you smile! .
