About This Blog

I began this blog in 2011 in an attempt to improve my photography and showcase all of California's 58 counties. I didn't quite make all of the 58, I missed three and I will try to rectify that in the coming year. I'm not sure how much I improved my photography because I always seemed to be in a rush.
In 2012 I plan to take more time, perhaps not post every day (this is one thing I did accomplish in 2011). I also plan to expand beyond California and include images from other parts of Western United States. I will continue to include a map showing where I was when I took the picture. I will keep commentary to a minimum, long photo essays will continue to be at Martha's Musings.

The shadows inside are wonderful, but what a majestic view out that window!!

In this particular setting, I think I'd like to be sitting in the sunlight, rather than in the shadows.

Shadowy Empty Room

This must be a view from 100 years ago, it seems. It appears not to be an ornate hotel, but functional. To enjoy such a view while dining is a very nice treat!

Looks like Mission style in architecture and furnishings. Getting snow here - thanks if you sent it to me!

Gemma Wiseman said...

Such wonderful tall windows for viewing the great outdoors! And love the shadowy room that seems like a treasured secret of travellers!

What an amazing view, so nice to sit at that table and take in all that is happening outside.

Thanks for sharing.

Lovely photo with beautiful colour and composition. I like the play of light and shade and the shadows cast.

A perfect spot to rest and view some of nature's beauty.
