Country Road take me Home

Another image from yesterday's road trip . My friend  Diane and I took the back roads home from Penn Valley.  The clouds were gorgeous.  We pull over to the side of the road to get this shot.  Although it looks deserted in this image, I had to wait a few minutes as cars were whizzing by in both directions.  I gave up trying to take a shot  in the center of the road.

Twilight


Went up to Grass Valley today to assist a friend on a engagement photo shoot.  Caught the end of this beautiful sunset just as we made it back to Vacaville.   The end to a perfect weekend.  We are also shooting the wedding next month.  Should be fun.

Beauty after the Rain

The rain finally stop long enough for me to go out at lunchtime and take some photos.  I love my little point and shoot.
Soft focus but I think they turned out ok.

Napa Vineyard

Having been out to shoot as much as I like to.  Working on my Lightroom skills.  At some point I want to learn basic Photoshop skills. This is one from the archives.

The Campanile (Sather Tower)










Sather Tower, known to most as the Campanile, is perhaps UC Berkeley's most famous symbol. Visible for miles, it stands 307 feet tall and is the third tallest bell and clock-tower in the world. The observation platform, located 200 feet up, provides visitors with a spectacular view of the entire Bay Area and of the campus. It is reachable via the combination of an elevator and stairs. The Campanile was completed in 1914.

A Tree



The trees are God's great alphabet:
With them He writes in shining green
Across the world His thoughts serene.
