Another side track on the same trip

It's interesting that earlier that same trip (see earlier post "A Drive Along Point Molate") I decided to take a detour on one of the roads near the Altamont pass. The once green hills had turned to brown. The rich blue afternoon sky supported these beautiful cumulus clouds that seemed to form the perfect backdrop for the rolling hills.












So I found myself driving down this road surrounded on both sides by the hills with the afternoon sunlight casting beautiful shadows over them. So what is a photographer to do when presented with this pallet... You just have to shoot and explore. See what's around the next corner and the next bend. visualize what you think that the final image will look like and then come back to my computerized darkroom and finish the vision.
