let the sun shine..., a photo by credd on Flickr.

the sunflower from saturday has opened.

field trip...

i knew i wanted to go out shooting on sunday.  my first thought was to go to mt. diablo...to photograph the snow.  i even tweeted about it.  unfortunately...i was the ONLY one that wanted to go.  so...instead...i went to napa.  

napa never disappointments me.  even though the mustard was just beginning to bloom...it was still a spectacular site to behold.  

the rain had ended for the day.  snow covered the mountain tops.  and beauty was all around...just waiting to be discovered.

i'll get to the mountains one day.  i'm just not sure when. 

there's supposed to be a pretty good storm coming thru here starting tonight.  the snow level's supposed to get down to sea level.  heck...if it gets that low...i might even have snow at MY house.  and if i do...you can bet there'll be photos.  

i'm in...

anyone that knows me...knows i love a challenge.  i mean...i'm on my third 365.  

so...when christa mentioned a one-shot, sooc (straight out of camera) photo challenge...i was in.

day 1...
