Favorite Images From 2011–Crepuscular Rays
Often called God’s rays, crepuscular rays stream through gaps in the clouds as columns of light contrasting with a darker background. They occur most frequently around dusk or dawn when contrasts are most apparent. Crepuscular is the Latin word for twilight.
This was taken in March, 2011, at Asilomar Beach, California.

Favorite Images From 2011–Farm In The Hills
This is from the Old Stage Road that connects Salinas and San Juan Bautista, California. This looks back toward Monterey County and the Salinas Valley; taken in March, 2011, when winter rains had turned the hills green. It is said that the bandit Joaquin Murrieta robbed stages on this road in the 1850’s.

The dramatic clouds over the lake as well as the clouds in the distance made this shot a good candidate for black and white. Converted from color with Silver Efex Pro.
