Oh hey, my home area of Northern California is trending. It's great place to live, especially if you love #nature, #travel, and #photography...

So, you folks like Northern California #photography? Here, have some more #nature and #travel shots from around the state: Big Sur, Muir Woods, Pinnacles NPS, and Mount Shasta!

Here, have some more Northern California #nature and #travel #photography: Mount Diablo State Park, Cascade Falls in Mill Valley, whale watching a few miles from Moss Landing, and some of the coastline near Pebble Beach.

While this has turned into an impromptu #photography thread about Northern California, I'd be remiss not to include some shots from about an hour away in #SF: the chapel at Grace Cathedral, the Japanese Tea Garden, Jack Kerouac Alley, and the Peking Bazaar in Chinatown.

Here's some more Northern California #nature and #travel #photography: Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park, Bird Rock on the 17 Mile Drive, Big Basin Redwoods State Park, and the summit trail at Lassen Volcanic National Park.

And one last batch (for now, I've got edit more) of Northern California #nature and #travel #photography: Meridian Ridge, Sulphur Works, Land's End in #SF, and Sutro Baths.

I thought I saw someone mention something about windmills? Yeah, we have a couple in #SF. Oh, and here are some shots out near Crissy Field, Pier 7, and a pagoda in the Japanese Tea Garden. #NorthernCalifornia #Travel #Photography

Speaking of pagodas, there's the Peace Pagoda in Japantown. The alleys in Chinatown are pretty interesting, too. Or if you want to go down the coast a bit, try Capitola or Garrapata State Park. #NorthernCalifornia #Travel #Nature #Photography

And I'll round it off with shots from Sutro Cave and sunset at Land's End in #SF, The Lone Cypress on the 17 Mile Drive, and Summit Lake at Lassen Volcanic NPS. #NorthernCalifornia #Nature #Travel #Photography

And lastly, Bonus Round: #NorthernCalifornia #Wildlife! Whales off Moss Landing, deer in an alley in Pacific Grove, a harbor seal on the 17 Mile Drive, and one of at least a hundred pelicans at Carmel River State Beach. #Travel #Nature #Photography
