With so many reflecting colored surfaces, the Queen Califia court is very dependent on the quality of the daylight. It is best at sunset but it is no longer open at those hours.

This is what I mean, first one from Saturday, a stormy winter day:

Summer sunset, 2008 - the shorter trees were better as well. These look best with the sky as background.

Rafael,

Indeed it is all about the light. Lovely color in the the 2008 shot but how on earth did you manage to line up those shots, ~15 years apart, with such accuracy? I am observing the marks in the wall versus the statue's base. Is there a fixed point that you used to put your camera on?

I was surprised myself to see how these two shots from different focal lengths and 15 years apart have almost identical composition.

There was no ground reference, it goes to show how boring and predictable I am. My boss likes that.
