We had a chance to visit with Nick Vista!

As a kid, I always wondered about the signs!
We traveled and my mom would read signs out loud for my brother and I when we were really little. And as we were traveling I never understood that one sign.
Out in California, in the Sequoia National Parks, we stopped as often as, well, often. I'd hop out, snap a few dozen shots, and we'd pile back in. I wondered whether they were sick of stopping so silly tourist me can take pics of something they see all the time?
Also, do they see the beauty? They probably do... but, would anyone ever get so used to it, it did not produce wonder?
I love that effect, btw, of colours. In College, in Scene Painting, we were taught, it's called atmospheric effect. Where, as you get more distant, the colours are more muted, less vibrant. its the amount of atmosphere, between us, the viewer, and the mountains.
Fascinating... Scenic Vista.

to put more plants in than I take out
And be a good steward for the world around me!

The answer for this Californian is no, I never get used to it @bluefinstudios!
It looks just as awe-inspiring every time I look out over the mountains, in the northern part of the state, in the California redwoods; also in the eastern parts, in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. If you had been able to go into Yosemite and up over Tioga Pass (120) it is absolutely beautiful.

Oh my goodness- what a stunning shot. I just want to dive straight in and fly over that scene. I can't imagine ever getting blase about something that can take your breath away like that. E x
