I would image there really are Trolls in the forest.........

Emerging

From the depths we emerge to freedom

Ferndale Bridge

Will use this for the show at Swanlunds.........Of our camera club theme "Ferndale Bridge".

Old man of the north.....

Or Screamer Man as I visioned it.

Entry to the unknown

Exploring Digital Art

Use your imagination in what this represents (if anything).

Crescent City-rusty dock parts

Barnacles are like little volcanoes.  Funny little things.  They grow on anything it seems like.

Another view of same sunset

Evening at home

The evening sunsets are sometimes so spectacular.

Another view of Humboldt Bay

Taken on Humboldt Bay early morning outing.

Early Morning at Humboldt Bay

Taken on an early morning outing with Tom B.

Creek on Hwy 299

Amazing how water over rocks creates these patterns.

Window reflection in our barn

Slough Scum

Up close there are feathers, sticks, moss etc.

Cayman at Iguazu Falls

Strange Clouds

Saw these clouds over our place and had to capture them.  Looking north toward Arcata.
The cows do not seem to be bothered.

FERN AT SUNSET

The design attracted me to photograph.

GOLDEN SUNSET

Taken off our front porch looking east.

ON THE SMITH RIVER

Is it Fall or Spring?????  Taken on the Smith River on the outing with Hal and Tom.  When I looked at this on the computer it looked like the photo had a split personality.

SANTA HAS BEEN FOUND........

Looks as though Santa has been celebrating ahead of time.

STRIPED BUILDING

Out wandering the area and spotted this red striped building with the window abstract reflections.  

ELK'S HEAD DARK FOREST

Could this be Bigfoot? The forest was dark and maybe he was watching me take this photo.

A LAZY DAY AT ELK'S HEAD

What a life, eat, swim and sunbathe.......OOPs!!!!!! maybe being the shark's dinner is not such a good life.
Stay out of the water you guys........

ON TRAIL TO ELK'S HEAD

I noticed this on the Elk's Head trail on the outing with Hal and Tom.  These seed pods look like hairy grapes.  Anyone know what they really are?

OCEAN ROCKS AT DRY LAGOON

Is there a sea lion sleeping?????

More Dry Lagoon

Loved the white dead branches.  Saw this little bit of color against them and it called to me for a shot.

Beach Outing

Just a couple of fun shots at Dry Lagoon from the outing with Hal. The plant seems to be emerging from its shelter.  The texture on the driftwood was fascinating.  Mother Nature is such a good artist and we are lucky to enjoy her work.

The desert or the beach????????

Where am I??????
Loved the rock formations.

What is the Story?????

This is in our front yard area.  Just though it could evoke a story, depending on who is telling it.

How many of us have ridden this when we were growing up?

WEED IN BLACK AND WHITE

This one has a Nik filter called Fine Art Process in Siver Effects Pro. 

LOCAL WEED ( OR JUST A MISUNDERSTOOD PLANT)

I picked the weed on the field trip with Hal and Tom.  Bought it home and put in water till it bloomed.
Made sure though to package up in a plastic bag to dispose of since we don't need this growing on our place.

South Spit

Another view from the same log.

GO FORTH YOUNG MAN

This is from the same log as the prior photo.  This reminded me of the hand of God saying "Go forth young man", OR maybe just a hand pointing "THIS WAY IS OUT".

TEXTURE AND PATTERN BY NATURE 

Part of a log on the south spit that capture my imagination with all the textures and patterns.
This is from the Sunday outing with Hal and Tom to the south spit.  Had not been there for years and I found this old log that definitely called to me.

ANY PLACE WILL DO FOR SOME!

The trees look worn along with the old appliances dumped among them.   I thought we as people wanted to preserve our forest, not make them a dumping ground.  Must be what happens when you live in a rural area and don't want to travel to town to the garbage company.

EVENING FOG

Taken looking toward Eureka one evening when the sun was setting and the fog was rolling in at the same time.  The single telephone pole is like a candle being lit.  These trees are all that is left of a former dairy ranch.

I was working on this for the clouds theme.  Taken the other morning at sunrise.
As I was working on it, realized that it reminded me of hot lava moving down the mountain canyon or a firestorm.  I guess I was letting my imagination run wide.

Old ruins and wouldn't you know that nothing is sacred.....Always some graffiti seems to appear, but at least it is PINK........

Wait for me!!!! I am coming...........

A complete picture of contentment!!!!

Sunset at the ranch looking toward Eureka.  I was glad to have caught the egret flying.

There is a slight reflection of the color in the ponds.
