I have been asked over and over again about where folks can get a print of my photograph of the iconic Bakersfield sign. Well, I now have it up on my etsy store… you can find it there!

I took a drive up the Kern River Canyon this morning, then looped around Lake Isabella, through Kernville, into Wofford Heights, over Alta Sierra and then back around through Glenville before returning home. I shot some film, yet to be developed, and some digital shots along the way. Here are the highlights…
A long exposure of the water tumbling over rocks on the Kern river.
Another view, long exposure of water and rocks. Near the mouth of the canyon, Kern river.
Light through the trees, on the old road in the Kern River Canyon.
Near Kernville. Reflections of the skies above the Kern River Valley.
Ranchland near Kernville, looking east.
Below Alta Sierra, thunderheads forming…
