New sourdough baker here in the Santa Cruz mountains of California. Made about 8 loaves so far and they have mostly turned out reasonable. The picture is of a prettier loaf, although I wasn't thrilled with the flavor. Having lots of fun with it and seem to have figured out a pretty good schedule for my weekend baking.
Nice loaf! I live in Santa Cruz-- nice to see a fellow baker close by!
