    Wasn't sure where to post this ,but guess here will be okay ! :)
    Given the title "The Day God Spilled The Paint " very apt. i think. The east side of the Carrizo plain, in the Temblor Range, about 50 miles due west of Bakersfield ,California . Photo taken by Barbara Mathews.

    That is so beautiful! To see it on the screen is a treat, just imagine what it would be to see it in real. Nature is a great artist, isn't she?

    Thanks for sharing it with us, Gogs.

    And this photo happened to be stored on my computer alongside those above and was taken by our friend Val on a frosty morning in the Lake District.
