A distinct contrast to the Western side of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Owens Valley is far more sparsely populated as compared to the San Joaquin Valley. Left uncultivated, one might wonder how common these separate valleys would appear along the vertical stretch of California’s Central region. The Western side is more irrigated, while receptive to the Pacific Ocean’s circulatory conditions and from seasonal rainstorms. To thereafter include late Fall season fog and Spring/Summer melt.
There is a mystery and wonder about finding places where you can see a far open valley. Great distances of natural terrain give a perspective about not only what is before you, but also what is behind you as well. Here in his photo is the Eastern slope of the Sierra near Cottonwood pass.
More mobile photography set up is coming together for on-the-go image captures, storage, and processing. Largely to involve Adobe Creative Cloud, this new 4K laptop, my mobile Android, and a spare drive with the large collection of photos on it. Many of them have not been published or processed. This is posted by a laptop and a more remote connection.
So as an experiment, I’ve brought over images that were uploaded from this laptop to see how the process works, to check results, and to learn how to do this in the best way possible. To see how feasible this is as a viable alternative to desktop publishing that normally happens.
