View from 8A – Central Valley Patchwork
The sheer scale of California's 450 mile long Central Valley is amazing. Fields stretching as far as the eye can see produce about 8% of the US agricultural output in about 1% of its land.

I’m being a geek here, but this kinda looks like a silicon chip with some solder spilled on it. Very cool capture in B&W!

Beauty shot Dave. Really like how the water breaks up the middle of the image!

Now that you mention it, Hans, this does look rather like a cracked silicon wafer! I guess that’s rather appropriate given that Silicon Valley isn’t far away.

Terrific shot. Had to look twice almost looks like an abstract painting.
