Mount Diablo

[Kinetic]

Headed out to Mount Diablo today, more specifically mitchell canyon. There were a few blooming wildflowers, but the hills were nowhere near what I've heard is the real caliber of what it can offer to flower enthusiasts. We did a long hike, which was really nice since today was extremely warm, sunny, and just extremely pleasant. I'm so glad I wasn't in an office today.

Here are the pictures from the shoot:

And of course a few teasers so you'll actually go look at the photos:

It is located in the East of San Francisco Bay. Tucked between Walnut Creek and Brentwood, just off I-680.

thanks! the light was really hitting the background at a perfect angle, and using the 50mm at f/1.8 really created fantastic bokeh =)
