A good year for lupine in Prunedale in May, 2005. This field is only a short distance from my house and has been a favorite subject over the years.

Solitary Oak on Ridge
As the storm cleared. patches of sun alternated with shadow. This lone oak on the top of the ridge was momentarily bathed in sunlight. Taken with a 200 mm telephoto lens in San Benito County, California.

Greens and Yellows in San Benito County
Green and yellow are the dominant colors in Central Coast California in February. The hills begin to show the saturated greens from the winter rains. Wild mustard appears along the highways and on the hillsides. Unsettled weather brings dramatic clouds as storm systems clear. I went to the hills above San Juan Bautista in San Benito County to look for oak trees on ridge tops. Large cumulus clouds were blowing through from the Pacific. I used a telephoto lens to isolate individual oaks with clouds in the background.
