This past spring I spent considerable time scouting and looking for green hill scenes around the Bay Area. During some of the trips I looked for compositions whereas I focused on lighting on other trips. I found myself coming to these hills almost every other week studying how the sun lights up the hills as it slowly traverses northward towards summer.

 

For a short time the sun is in the right position to strike just the edges of these hills while leaving the remaining hillsides in shadows. I opted for a vertical framing here to highlights the multitude of layers of hills overlapping each other from near to far. I had a great time spending most of my shoots in complete solitude enjoying nature and it felt even better to find such peaceful rolling hill scenes just around in my backyard.
