As it runs through the Elfin Forest Recreational Reserve. Most of the the greenery is seasonal to the spring and early summer.

When swimming in these creeks as a kid, we called this stuff Elephant Snot.

    Thanks Josh, for the comment and suggestion (which I agree with).
    I neglected, on this visit, to get any closer or detail shots rolleyes1.gif, but, I'll be going back and will git-r-done then!

    Thanks so much Don, for the feedback! It is a fairly uncommon scene here in our arid Southwest.

    Thank-you Sam, for the look and comment - very appreciated!
    These limey shades of green are so different than evergreen regions,
    and the underwater mosses grow only between winter gully-washers and summer trickle.

    Great creek, Eric. Nice colors. I like the elephant snot. :D

    It would be interesting to see this area in softer lighting.

    Boy....rocks and streams. They're both strong pulls on me. Great job on capturing these, Eric.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Thanks for your comment, support, and interest Joel - you're a fantastic Moderator! thumb.gif
    Agreed - isn't the right-light always so key - will be looking for that next visit.
