  4. The visual impact is acute. The centering of the subjects and descriptions is very well done. As a long-time citizen who knows most of these places, I feel the photographer did a marvelous job of showing views the ordinary person would never see. My favorite was the one photograph that shows the Delta Mendota, the California Aqueduct, the coast range and the fertile valley. That was a great shot.Beautiful photography. Thank you.
