Sacramento river is a part of the Sacramento river watershed, which covers an area measuring 9,556 square kilometers in Northern California. It is 530km in length and runs from the Sierra Nevada range to its mouth at San Francisco Bay. As a life source for millions of people it’s been dubbed “the American Nile”. In the past it was one of the most mighty rivers in California and now it’s known as a prime fishing ground.
The picture shows a river meadow with reeds and water plants dotted around, their reflections shimmering across the surface.
