California in the spring is really beautiful. Our state gets so green in the winter with the rains (or should I say WHEN it rains). Fortunately we’ve had a lot of rain this year. Bright yellow mustard grass spreads across the vibrant green hills and only lasts a short time after the rains when the sun comes out, but oh what a sight it is to see! I can’t help but smile when I see it. 🙂
This is an artistic redo of a “regular” photo I took of this very spot in a previous post. If you want to see the before picture, please click here.

Me too, but it has to be done right. So easy to go to far!
May 10, 2016 at 2:31 pm
True. Sometimes I go to far so I know what’s there and then I dial back the next time.

Thank you! It really was.. 🙂

You do a smart job making flat images looker so much better, I am not the best at landscape work, as mine don’t look punchy enough but you do a great job at giving them a facelift.

Thank you! I love working on them.
