Pollen in Puddles

We've had a very dry rainy season here in Morro Bay; because of that, the pollen (mostly from the pine trees), has collected. This small rain we just received, pushed large amounts of pollen around in some creative ways...


Lightening pollen...

A large headed horse/like creature with a rounded snout, looming up, pollen...

An upside down person walking with an umbrella?--you figure it out...

Van Gogh's, A Starry Night...

Etch A Sketch--check out the reddish/brown stick just under the surface--it sticks out just enough to draw a line in the pollen as the puddle moves. The wind moved the puddle back against its down hill flow a few times...

Crescent moon pollen...

Eruption pollen...

Responsible safety sidewalk pollen.

I walked Patience to the bus stop--saw all these puddles and had to go home grab the camera and go out again--natures artwork!
