I’ve been scouting and shooting a lot lately for my upcoming Abstract Photo Workshops. These are a few of the images I captured, while down at the American River.

The Foresthill Bridge (California's tallest bridge) stretches over the beautiful North Fork of the American River, Auburn, CA.

Auburn is awesome, especially in Autumn!

Join me this coming Sunday for an all day photo shoot down into the American River Canyon and in Old Town Auburn. See why Auburn is becoming more of a tourist destination and less of a place to just stop on the way to Lake Tahoe and Reno.

I love to share my town any chance I get and that is one reason why I am offering my American River/Old Town Auburn Photo Tour & Workshop.

Here are a few tidbits about Auburn:

  1. We have the oldest volunteer fire department in the West.
  2. We also have the tallest bridge in California.
  3. Parts of Phenomenon and XXX (among others) were filmed here.
  4. We are the “Endurance Capital of the World.”
  5. And much more…

I am offering this Photo Tour & Workshop at a sweet 2 for 1 price. For just $125.00, you and a friend (spouse, relative etc.) can enjoy a whole day with me (includes lunch), honing your photography skills and learning more about what makes Auburn so awesome!

Hurry and book before it’s too late. The deadline is this Wednesday!

See more images of Auburn.

Thanks for visiting!

Banner Cascade Trail: Nevada City, CA

by Sherri on October 25, 2010

Banner-Cascade-Trail

Sherri Meyer & Cocoa hiking on the Banner Cascade Trail in Nevada City, California.

Our fall color scouting trip to Nevada City last Thursday didn’t yield quite what we were expecting. We went to check on the fall color for my upcoming Photo Tour & Workshop. It was scheduled for yesterday. It’s a good thing I postponed it due to the lack of color, as this area got dumped on yesterday (6.5 inches of rain at our house)!

According to what I had been reading, the trees were starting to turn a couple of weeks ago. We expected it to look like it did in this photo of Downtown Nevada City, which was taken two years ago almost to the day!

The best laid plans don’t always work out. We made the most of the day anyway. We found a great hiking trail, the “Banner Cascade Trail.” It parallels a four and one-half mile segment of the Lower Cascade Canal between Red Dog Road and Gracie Road, near Nevada City. It is level and great for hiking, biking and running. Leashed dogs are welcome too!

We only had enough time to hike two miles and capture a few Outdoor Lifestyle images, before turning around. The four mile hike was time well spent! 🙂

NOTE: There is still time to book my half-day Old Town Auburn Fall Color Photo Tour & Workshop, or my full day American River & Old Town Auburn Fall Color Photo Tour & Workshop. We should have some really great color by then!

Cheers,

Sherri
