Over time, I have taken hundreds (probably thousands) of photos of rocks, water, and sky and their interactions. Here are a few of my favorites.

Happy Earth Science Week - Monday
Happy Earth Science Week 2014!
What is Earth Science? The short answer is that Earth Science is the study of the Earth and its neighbors in space.
Earth Science is generally divided into four disciplines:
Geology (the study of the earth) is a science that deals with the study of the Earth's materials, structures, and processes.
Meteorology is a science that deals with the study of atmosphere and how processes in the atmosphere affect weather and climate (long term weather patterns).
Oceanography is a science that involves the study of Earth's oceans and seas and their composition, patterns, and processes. This science also includes the study of the organisms that inhabit the oceans.
Astronomy is the study of the universe. It includes the study of how nearby celestial bodies influence the Earth.
