Champ Battles Pacific Coast Winds

I actually managed to attach a mini keychain-camera (808 #16) to the bottom of a Hobbyzone Champ, tiny little brushed motor and 1S batteries, even. I managed to battle the wind to about four hundred feet over the Gold Bluffs Beach Campground. Just beyond those bluffs are massive Northern California forests and Redwoods National Park.

Fern Canyon

I just found a short sweep I took of Fern Canyon, which is a cool spot in the Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. It’s a brief hike from the right by the coast in Humboldt County, California.

This area was the location for a few scenes in The Lost World: Jurassic Park because, well… it just looks so naturally prehistoric!

No More Heroes

Seen in LA sometime back in 2007. I don’t know if it was actually Banksy’s work, but it sure looks like it.

Pre-Drought California

This was a vista from the fabulous voyage into deeper California with my buddy Mikah Sykes and (the infamous) Lazer, searching for yucca flowers in overdrive. It’s not you, no… it’s an inside joke. Just don’t eat all the dolmas, k?

Redwoods National Park Panorama

These trees are far too tall for the traditional photo format, so I stitched a few shots together in order to try and capture the perspective a little better.

While visiting the park, I learned that these trees grow to such great heights in order to sequester the perpetual fog in the area.

There’s so much more accessible water in the sky compared to what’s available in the ground, that they evolved over time to scrape the clouds as they rolled through.

Just amazing.
