Today I show you photos from day one. These photos will include some shots on my drive to the park, and some photos from Three Rivers, CA (as that is where I stayed for the night). I have photos of farms, Lake Kaweah, one photo from inside Sequoia National Park, and cacti.
First photo is shot on SR-245 in Exeter, CA. I thought the long highway looked very nice with farm fields on both sides.

A black and white process of the photo above.
This next shot was shot in Woodlake, CA. I thought the rock formations on the mountain side looked very nice. I would have crossed the highway to frame the highway out of the photo, but those trees in the field were too high for me to do that. I also thought the rural house and barn in the distance looked very nice.

These next few photos were shot at approximately the same location is of Lake Kaweah in Lemon Cove, CA.

Another photo of Lake Kaweah.
If you take a close look, you can see that California is in serious drought right now. You can see where the water level used to be, and on the far left, you can see the orange floating thing that they keep in lakes, but now half of the devices is on dry land. The dry lake also seems to have turned an island on the far shoreline into a peninsula.
Here is a photo inside Sequoia National Park at a turnout on Generals Highway (SR-198). I then headed back out to Three Rivers, CA because my parents wanted to check out a less traveled area of the park (Mineral King Road). The view on that road was okay.

So back out of the park in Three Rivers, CA, as I drove up Mineral King Road, saw a lot of species of cacti planted outside a home. I decided to stop for some photos as they were pretty.
