There's a very special place called the Arcata Community Forest. The City of Arcata, CA, owns a bit of property by Cal Poly Humboldt. Part of it includes some community buildings, a playground with a field for visitors to relax, and a Forest. I don't really care about those first two features; the Forest is where I like to visit. It includes very nice dirt paths to explore the property. Hearing the wonderful calls from the resident Varied Thrushes while enjoying the beautiful greenery is one of my favorite pastimes. You should visit here if you can.

Waterfall 01
Waterfall 01
While hiking a trail near Arcata, CA, I found a little opening in the forest brush where I could see the little waterfall featured in this photograph. This waterfall was on a hillside so the shot was actually at eye level which is a fairly unique sight. The water spilled into a tiny pool and then cascaded down toward me, continuing into a stream that flowed near my feet and down into the forest below.

I didn’t really know what to name this shot because there really isn’t a subject matter I was focusing on. I just liked the way that the rocks and the fallen trees made a tunnel. I guess I could have named this Manzanita, as that is what is at the end of the tunnel, but I decided to name it Snow as that is what made this particular moment special. My wife and I walked a trail nearby which was covered in Snow and it was very beautiful. The particular spot in the photograph was not very covered but you can still see remnants of the Snow that blanketed the area a day or so before this shot.
