Description
Nature photography often involves a great deal of planning and advance research to find the right conditions, etc to capture a good image. Sometimes all the planning in the world still isn’t enough. That said, any photographer who tells you they’ve never had a certain degree of just dumb luck is a far better photographer than yours truly or pulling your leg. In this instance I have to own up to some definite dumb luck. My wife and I went to Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park in Humboldt County California hoping to see some Elk bulls sparing in the meadow there. However, my hopes weren’t high as it was raining and I’d heard that the powers-that-be in the park were scheduled to burn the meadow as they do every few years. This turned out to be true as the meadow was still smoking when we got there. Add in the very rainy conditions and we saw no elk to photograph. What I did not expect was how many glorious patches of fall color there would be. I took a short hike and came away with a couple pretty images.
