Description
I captured this image in the early morning hours on Hat Creek, just downstream of the aptly named Paradise Meadow in Lassen Volcanic National Park in Northern California. In the early morning hour, I had the whole trail to myself, never seeing another soul, with my only real obstacle being the green fir cones that the large population of pine squirrels was trying to drop on my head in the denser wooded areas as they squeaked their displeasure at my presence. It was a wonderful hike that, as a longtime annual pass holder for the park, I’d yet to do.

Fine POV and framing for a beautiful perspective Mike, also beautiful shadow and light effect. F/L

What a beautiful scene, Mike. It's so restful and peaceful. Great place to sit on the log and dangle your feet in the stream. Love the framing leading to the center tree.
