Intense light and haze made this shot of an old barn challenging. However I enjoyed how it turned out. - Gordon Smith Fine Art Photography

California has incredible diversity in the landscape, people, architecture, wildlife and more. This Gallery highlights some of the places in California that I have seen, primarily centered around San Luis Obispo (my wife's hometown). Avila Beach, San Luis Obispo, Pismo Beach, Montana de Oro, and Morro Bay are all represented here. My San Francisco pics are also here because I don't have a gallery yet for them.
