photo of the day

Last night we stayed in Crescent City, and today we headed north to Bandon, OR. On our way we drove through the redwoods and took a few pictures. My picture of the day is one of my boyfriend standing on the road in the redwoods. I have pictures without him in it, but it just doesn't have the same impact without a sense of scale. I also took some pictures on the beach in Bandon later this evening, that are probably technically better, but I already have beach pictures (and will probably have more) in my project and I really wanted to include the redwoods. So, this is my picture.



Here are some other pictures from the day.

Redwoods without a person. Just doesn't have the same feeling.


Water shots.






The beach.




Little mushroom guy and Jeff were there with me.

Happy October! Only 3 months left, and then I will have completed a whole year of photo of the day. That is crazy thought.

Today we went for a hike down Fern Canyon. Apparently, they shot part of the movie The Lost World (Jurassic Park sequel) here. Basically, you are walking down the creek bed, and let me just say, it didn’t take me long to slip (trying to cross not-so-sturdy log bridges and walking on big rocks) and get my shoes wet. After that it was much easier to walk, as I could just walk down the creek. Jeff lasted almost until we got back, and then he only got one shoe a little wet. The walls of the canyon were lined with ferns. It was really neat looking. Unfortunately, my picture doesn’t really do it justice, but it is the best I got.



And the my little mushroom guy was along for the ride.

Today we left Carmel and drove to Eureka, to spend a few days by the redwoods. We stopped in Napa Valley for some wine tasting along the way. When we got a hotel, I realized I hadn't taken any pictures. So, yes, I took a picture of the textured wall. Then I processed it to make it more colorful.



I also took a pictures of the lights. In case the wall texture picture didn't turn out.

Today was Jeff's birthday. We had a nice day. We did some wine tasting out in Carmel Valley. Then we had a nice dinner at a wonderful little restaurant. It was such a nice day. This is a picture of some plant on the deck that I took at some point during the day.

It was a pretty sunset today. This is taken from our private deck at the place we are staying. Very nice to sit there and watch the beautiful sunset.



And one more of the colors with grass in the foreground.
