Humboldt County, California File it under tall tales if you must; I would not be offended. You know that not everything you believe can be true, and not everything that’s true can be believed. And whether or not something written is true may well ...
Holiday Magic 2019
Humboldt County, California. It certainly looked a lot like Christmas in Old Town, Eureka. I’d gone down to photograph some nighttime holiday lights, and what should happen by but a wooden Santa ornament. It hobbled stiffly out of the store as ...

Lost in Space (Big Dipper over Trinidad)
Humboldt County, California The planet hung silently in space. A tiny jewel in the blackness, it was a half-lit marble of greens and browns and blues and whites. But it was more than a planet, it was a life-bearing droplet, a little oasis of life ...

![Fields Landing - Humboldt Bay, Humboldt County, California.. Swipe for 3 separate panes. Shooting star/meteor in middle and right panes. .
I had another great time out being photographically creative with @maryburnzz . It was a good night for it! We each caught a shooting star, I think two different ones. .

A fishing boat and the last dying embers of the sun's orange glow marked the horizon. Ground lights spilled their illumations across the landscape and up onto the clouds, and the stars popped out in all their constellations. Venus was sinking in the west, bright enough to cast a reflection on the bay. Even a faint hint of Milky Way 🌌shone diagonally across the sky. Even EVEN our neighboring galaxy Andromeda 🌌 was visible above the channel marker with the green light on it. To cap it off, I caught a meteor/Shooting Star! 🌠(See it?).

From the story on kymkemp.com (Redheaded Blackbelt): “It [my pano] comprises five separate, side-by-side vertical frames, which I then put together into the whole. The resulting view is nearly 180º.” .
