Spring Morning, Calero Hills

Spring Morning, Calero Hills. Santa Clara County, California. March 8, 2008. G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

This is a stitch of four 12MP frames, the result being a highly detailed image that should hold up as a 2′ x 4′ print. (It is probably getting a bit “old” to hear me reporting that the actual image contains far more detail that can possibly be shown in a web-sized image… so I won’t. :-)

This photograph was made along a familiar trail – actually a bit off the familiar trail – in a park I frequently visit in the southern portion of Santa Clara County.

This photograph was made at one of my favorite and frequently-visited local oak/grassland parks in the southern portion of Santa Clara County in the southern reaches of the San Francisco Bay Area. At certain times of the year I visit this area almost weekly.

This photograph was made during the spring of 2005 when the Merced River was flooding during a very high spring runoff. Here the water is almost spilling over the banks near where it passes by El Capitan.
