    In #1 looks like cat radar has locked on a field mouse. Tried counting the sheep but keep dozing off. Sheep stare, I wish I had a nickel for every sheep that copped an attitude with me. My faves were reflection of the kids and the vineyard hills. Keep up the good work, geek!

    Nice shots! I like both rearview shots, especially the one of the kids. And, the vine shots were great, especially vines and fence!

    mpg - I appreciate the organized, uniform structure of a grapefield. I think that is the one thing that sticks out in my mind driving from LA to SF...you captured it well! Reflection in rearview mirror is nothing but love!

    I liked the DOF in vineyards and fences. I also like the peacefulness of can you count the sheep.

  • You guys are great! I didn't honestly count the sheep, but my daughter and I seemed to keep coming across huge numbers of them in the hills. Couldn't resist shooting them a few times. Sheep and Weeds II made me crack up, with their butts blending into the weeds. Thanks for your encouragement!
