Bull in the flood plain
Last Sunday, it rained really hard all day, which meant that as usual, a good part of Ferndale was flooded. Tuesday, I took a short motorcycle ride at lunch time and going down the main highway out of town, I went past this field that is very pretty when it floods. There was a lone bull standing out in the middle of the flood plain and I thought it would make a great picture at sunset. Later that afternoon while coming back from Eureka to pick up the last batch of slides I shot, I noticed the bull was still there, so when I got home I grabbed all my camera equipment and rushed out again. I got permission from the land owners to shoot on their property and came away with about a dozen very nice shots. I’ve had several other ranchers give me permission for areas I’ve seen and even a few I haven’t, so I have lots more places to explore and shoot. Have I mentioned I’m loving it here?
