Far hills are near Napa, this canal may go to the Napa River. I was on a hike scouting around for a place to make the salt print I posted recently. Printed 27 May 2014

Maybe a raccoon... along the edge of a salt pond. ( When I put it on the Ipernity Map, I saw that the trail I was on goes to Coon Island ! :) Printed 29 May 2014

I made this for a fun activity over at APUG called the Monthly Shooting Assignment . The current theme is salt . This salt print was made by coating the paper with saltwater from within this photograph. Canson Universal Sketch paper, 7x11 inches, coated with this saltwater then with silver nitrate + citric acid. Contact printed from a paper negative.

This is "pond 7A" in the Huichica Creek section of the Napa Sonoma Salt Marsh Preserve. This 300 acre evaporation pond was once used to make salt. Now it is part of a wildlife refuge!
