South Bay Landscapes

Salt marshes

There’s something special about California light and if you’ve spent time here you understand blue and gold. This is a collection of images that will be expounded upon in the near future with video and time-lapse footage.

The brackish waters of the foreground ponds reflect light differently depending on water level and salt content. 

These hi-res HDR South Bay landscape images can be printed up to 40 inches on fine-art archival paper, Fuji Deep Matte or super smooth aluminum.  They’re also available as stock and editorial images.

California boasts several superlatives in its collection of flora: the largest trees, the tallest trees, and the oldest trees. California’s native grasses are perennial plants. After European contact, these were generally replaced by invasive species of European annual grasses; and, in modern times, California’s hills turn a characteristic golden-brown in summer.

Because California has the greatest diversity of climate and terrain, the state has six life zones which are the lower Sonoran (desert); upper Sonoran (foothill regions and some coastal lands), transition (coastal areas and moist northeastern counties); and the Canadian, Hudsonian, and Arctic Zones, comprising the state’s highest elevations.  < more at Wikipedia >
