THE SCENE A verdant field in Irvine GETTING THERE Access the path from Quail Hill Trailhead. EXPLORER CREDIT Mick Gow @micktographer BEHIND THE SHOT “It’s di icult to imagine a view this lush right next to the 405 in Irvine, but it’s one of the most accessible views in O.C. that feels like a scene from ‘The Sound of Music,’ ” Gow says. “It was taken in early spring, right as the grass was at its peak. The magical light and whimsical clouds were the stars of the show.”
