On the Road to Anaheim

Wandering Wednesday - Road trip to Anaheim.
 Driving through the fields in Watsonville, I'm always reminded of why I make my abstract landscapes the way I do. If I look at this picture without my glasses, it's a great plan for a landscape piece.
 I know that orange-yellow circle looks like a strange sun in the sky, but it's a petal from almond trees. stuck on the outside of the window. That was a lot more water in the San Luis reservoir which was nice to see after the years of drought.
 Walking around Anaheim through throngs of people dazed from a day at Disneyland and groups of conference attendees I noticed the moon shining through the lit-up palm trees.
 This industrial looking scene with palm trees is so SoCal.
 This sign by the hotel made me laugh.
 This tree by the convention center was impressive, I couldn't fit it all in this one photo as it's 12' wide. It's a Moreton Bay Fig almost 100 years old.

 I liked the curving concrete arches of the convention center.
 This would be a good quilt design wouldn't it?
Sunset on I-5 North heading home. I like how you can see the polka dotted sun tinting on the windshield so well.

It was fun entertaining myself with taking pictures.
