Besides being a beautiful composition it’s also a great subject for Earth Day because it’s a reminder that the seasonal natural wonders can be just as important to preserve as say geological oddities, spectacular coastlines etc. In fact these wildflower fields are a quintessential California landscape that have been devastated by intensive agriculture and suburban development. They really should be a higher priority for preservation. There are some groups out there that are working towards this (like the California Native Plant Society) that could use more support. Chris

And I certainly hope that beautiful spot near Gorman stays just the way it is.

Earth Day, and anything that comes from your camera, are great reminders to tilt that balance towards nature as much as we can reasonably afford to.
