A Scene Along a Trail

[AlanLichty]

A simple trailside scene from a cooler and wetter season. Naked skies and hot weather are getting a bit old for my tastes right now and this looked like a pleasant viewing distraction. For the record I did not pick the 'shrooms.

C&C always welcome.

I love this image Alan. Those tiny mushrooms and the green moss against the dark background really tell a story.

It definitely imparts a cool and fresh vibe, much needed in our current climate.

Thanks for setting the record straight about what you did or did not do.

Nice, Alan. Are those mushrooms edible?

Thanks Trent - this type of scene is amongst my favorites to find/shoot.

Thanks Michael - I am at a point where I can't wait for fall but we still have wildfire season creeping up first

Nice, Alan. Are those mushrooms edible?

Thanks Doug - these are members of the psilocybin family that grow wild in the coastal forests of Oregon.

Reminds me of the rain forest. I hear about the summer around here. I gets a bit tiring after a while. The new building codes now require A/C now. In the 80s and 90s we rarely needed A/C and rarely saw temps in the 90s.

Thanks Jameel - this was in the coastal forests just east of Florence.

It seems like A/C is almost a given in new construction anymore which is probably a Good Thing(TM). Residential A/C wasn't common in early 1950's Phoenix and most houses (including ours) only had swamp coolers. I don't have fond memories of summers in that era other than when we went somewhere else on vacations.
