Sunset over Blue Lake, Tahoe National Forest, California

Here is another shot of Blue Lake taken from the ridge overlooking the lake. This version is the way it actually looked when I shot it.

For this version of the photo above, I did a little adjusting in PhotoShop to bring out the blue tones. After all, the name of the lake is “Blue Lake.”

Which one do you like best?

There are several Blue Lakes in California. But, the one in the photo above has been a favorite of ours for many years. In fact, we have kept it a “secret” up until now. I won’t tell exactly how to get there, other than it’s the Blue Lake near Lake Spaulding, in the Tahoe National Forest.

Jeff and War Commander kicking up a little dust at Hidden Creek Ranch, Harrison, Idaho

Howdy! 

Jeff and I are in the process of making some major changes to our Website. You won’t notice anything different at this time, unless you try to purchase an image. We hope to have this project completed and the dust settled by the end of next week.  

In the meantime, if you would like to order prints, or license our images, please let us know by sending us an email at sherri@sherrimeyer.com.

Thank you,

Jeff & Sherri

Sunrise over Utica Reservoir, Alpine County, California

The Blue Thunder story continues… 

It’s been 25 years since this photo was taken on our off-road adventure trip to Utica Reservoir. But, I remember it as if it was yesterday.

California Poppies and Purple Lupine, Hidden Falls Regional Park, Auburn, California

I love the contrast between the orange Poppies and the purple Lupine so much, I am posting another version of the photo I posted yesterday.

Windy Point Trail 2008 wildflower update

A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about the Windy Point Trail. Jeff and I have not been there yet this year. But, a couple of our friends were there a couple of weeks ago and reported that the California Poppies, Lupine and Goldfields were putting on a great show. 

I’m not sure how much longer they will last, but most likely for a couple more weeks or so. If you can’t make it up there this year, be sure to put it on your list for next year! 

California Poppies and Purple Lupine, Hidden Falls Regional Park, Auburn, California

The hillside near the Hidden Falls Regional Park parking lot is covered with these colorful California Poppies and Purple Lupine.

If you are short on time, or disabled and unable to take a wildflower hike here, you can still get an eyefull of color without getting out of your car.

Please refer to my last post for more information about the park.

Enjoy! 

Wild Sierra Iris (Iris Hartwegii) growing along the Poppy Loop Trail at Hidden Falls Regional Park, in the Sierra Nevada Foothills, Auburn, California 

One year ago this past Thursday, Jeff and I spent our 25th anniversary adventuring in Cabo San Lucas. This year we spent it adventuring in our own neck-of-the-woods. Although it wasn’t near as wild as our week in Cabo, it was wild of a different nature.

It was wild as in “wildflowers.”
