Above the Clouds at Mount Diablo Summit
Saturday, May 30th, 2026 at 2:29:24 PM · 2026/Mt Diablo Camping - Juniper Canyon
Two young children explore the wide-open summit area of Mount Diablo in California, with their long shadows and that of the photographer stretching dramatically across the characteristic red-orange decomposed granite soil. A stunning sea of low marine fog fills the valleys below, with the rolling hills of the East Bay and distant landscape visible above the cloud layer. The image captures the magic of being above the fog line on a clear morning, a classic Bay Area phenomenon. Shot with a wide-angle lens from a low angle, the composition emphasizes the vast open sky, the rugged summit terrain, and the sweeping panoramic view.
