I didn't know Brentwood has a beautiful lake. Excellent shot. Sort of mesmerizing.

Great image, Jose! I need to spend more time visiting my sister in Berkeley so I can see these places. Awesome job.

Fantastic! I love Mount Diablo! I lived on the flank of it in Walnut Creek for 10 years (near Shell Ridge), and met my wife during the annual Devil Mountain Challenge bicycle race, way back when... We moved away about 6 years ago, and it brings back good memories of a mountain that has always been a special place for me. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Jeff,
I actually came back from the summit of Mount Diablo prior to taking this picture. It is really a beautiful place. I can't wait to go back there during spring time.
I heard the flowers are very colorful. I'm glad you enjoyed the photo.
thanks
Jose

Jose,
This is absolutely wonderful! I've been to Mt. Diable several times and have never captured anything close to this beauty! After seeing your shot, I would like to give Mt. Diable another shot. As you say, maybe this spring!
Great shot Jose!

Jose, the very first place i lived when moving to the US was Walnut Creek. It was really great living there back then and i would often go hiking on Mt Diablo. You captured this scene perfectly and it brings back many good memories.

All the best to you in 2004
