Spring flowers in the hills of Central California.

Back in 2019 we had quite an impressive spring wildflower season in most of California. The quality and number of flowers is extremely precipitation dependent in California — and depending upon the moisture levels we can see a ho-hum season or something the bursts forth is spectacular form, covering hillsides with carpets of color.

I made this photograph in one of those “carpeted” places. We arrived here at the peak color of a peak season, and the number and variety of flowers were astonishing.
