Driving through California is one of my greatest joys. On my way to the great photographic sights, I have plenty of time to think about how California really looks like apart from the glossy pages and polished frames people are used to seeing. One of the main sights on my travels are golden hills lined with trees. Depending on the time of the day, they may glow golden or look rather dull and brown.
For some reason, I always pass the most beautiful rolling hills in perfect light when there is no way to pull over. This is pretty much how most of central California between I-5 and 101 looks like. I am sure that I will finally succeed in capturing a better image.
