Ojai, CA 1997-present
In 1996 I moved to Southern California, and in 1997 settled in the little village of Ojai, a world of desert cactus and orange groves, of mountains and sunsets and moonrises. Many of these pictures were taken in the village itself, or even right on my street, but they also range further afield, within a limit of about a half-hour’s drive: roughly, from Lake Casitas in the west to Upper Ojai in the east, from the village of Ojai in the south up the 33 to Rose Valley and Pine Mountain in the north.
