Our very own Luis Franco is featured in this week’s The Sunday Pinnacle. The article is about the Gilroy Garlic festival. He’s featured as one of the artists on display and gets to share some of his views on his work. We also get a picture of Luis with his camera.
Way to go Luis!

The forest of Nisene Marks is a nearby Redwood forest that would provide numerous photo opportunities. The Pinnacle recently wrote about it in this article, with photographs. The park’s website is here, but I recommend reading the article first to get a feel for this great little photo op in Aptos.
