Here are a few more aerial views, starting with the geometry of field and stream in the CA Salinas Valley.

As weather finally began to hint at drought relief, from a safe distance we enjoyed the look of clouds beyond the Santa Ynez Mountains.

It’s nice having the long zoom lens of the Sony RX-10m4 for pix like these.

A few days later we enjoyed this somehow rakish view of Lake Cachuma.

9004 Angles & Reflections
Though it was from a Cachuma dam release to replenish ground water in the Santa Ynez Valley, it was nice to see a thin strip of green amid bone dry scrub.
