Old California

Old California still exists just a short distance from home. A couple of hours and worlds apart, the legacy of three centuries past is still evident in the quiet valleys speckled with mature oaks and highest peaks topped with sugar pines. Grinding stones and well worn rocks whisper about the native people who thrived here. A Franciscan mission provides a more recent connection, somewhat controversially, to how California used to look in the late 1600's. With the current burgeoning population it is a wonder to find these places hidden between the largest urban areas of our country.
The images are from a weekend with friends celebrating the passage of time.

All images can be opened to a larger format.

    What a treat. It isn’t often, no never, except with skip, that I get a reminder about how lucky we are if we only open our eyes. Thanks again, as always.

lives on the Central Coast of California. These photographs are an attempt to share the story of a place, a person, a moment as it happens. Sit back, take a deep breath, and spend some time enjoying the images.
