Mount Diablo State Park (Part 1)

I know this is way overdue, but back in September of last year, I went to Mount Diablo State Park. Here are some of the photos I took there. I will be splitting them into 2 parts. Sorry for being so late on posting this, I've been busy, and I have way too many photos in my collection I plan on posting I kind of forgot about this. I hope you enjoy viewing these photos. Mount Diablo State Park is located in Contra Costa County, CA.

Full Resolution Photos and Prints: If you want to see full resolution photos or buy prints of any of the photos you see, they are up on my portfolio for viewing. To view my best Mount Diablo photos, use this link. to view all of my Mount Diablo photos, use this link.

Message from the Photographer: You guys probably noticed some new ads up on my blog! :) This is because I got accepted into the affiliate programs of some new advertisers and I will now be displaying their ads on my blog. All ad money I get from this blog's ads (at the time of writing this post) goes to helping me keep this blog up and running and for new equipment. Thank you guys for your continued support on helping me keep this blog going. Hope you all will continue checking out my blog for new and wonderful photos to come. 😁

HDR in the Castle Rock area of Mount Diablo. A lot of rocks in the area, and fun to climb on. :)

 Castle Rock (where I took the 1st photo). I shot this from a pullout on the road across from Castle Rock. 



A view of part of the valley and the mountain. This was half way up to the peak of Mount Diablo.  

Small museum at the top of the peak of Mount Diablo. These are some taxidermy animals in the museum. I used my Canon Speedlite 600-EX RT with a small softbox

Now some landscape shots at the peak. The interior valley in California.  

 Looks like some kind of mine in the distance. I switched over to my telephoto lens to check it out even more. 



Here is the mine up close with my telephoto lens.  

Now using the farthest zoom I have.  

Some of the mine works near the mine.
