Decided I'd post again today. I'm trying to get into a rhythm of posting something at least a few times a week. These were all taken up near Running Springs and Lake Arrowhead area.
These were all taken when Mike was down at our son's house helping him out after he shattered his kneee and I was alone most of the time up here for several months all though winter and some of spring.
i would take the car and head out with no special destination in mind. Some I took through the car window (bad me) and some I would stop and get out and walk around getting some photos.
I went out often in the spring since during the winter I was stuck at home so much because of the snow.
#1 Near my house taken from Lake Gregory Drive. Flannel bush comes back every spring with beautiful yellow orangish flowers. Down below is the lake and the houses across the hill above it.
Taken along Rim hwy near Rim Forest

House I take every time i pass it. Entering into Running Springs. I recently used an App with a filter (Prisma) on a different photo of this house and put it elsewhere on my art blog. I'm having fun with the app.
Lake Arrowhead - I especially like this walk. Burnt Mill Canyon area not far from the lake.
Cedar Glen area in Lake Arrowhead. This leads to a trail to deep creek canyon. I parked this day and walked out to the trail but didn't walk it at that time . I want to go back when it's cooler to do that.
Zoomed in for close up of Lake Arrowhead Village. I was out on a hwy and it took my full zoom power to get this. I like that it turned out. Where those houses are is a lake trail which I call the docks trail which is beautiful to walk through - it's about a 2 hour walk lots of up and down on the trails by the houses. I don't do it in the heat of summer but I'm really wanting to get back out on that trail soon.
Resevoir across from Lake ARrowhead - they call this Papoose lake but's strictly a resevoir.
Below - taken far away and zoomed in to get that little house.
You've shared some very nice photographs, thank you.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Those photos are beautiful. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThanks Winifred and Jan.
ReplyDeleteLove seeing the photos of all these places. You really got some good photos and mentioned a couple of trails I haven't heard you mention before. Your camera does very well on long shots!
ReplyDeletethanks Laura - yes the docks walk , what i call it, is my favorite...but you can't do it in heat. Soon in the afternoon like now the breezes are really picking up some i'll be able to go there. Deep creek - haven't been before but i plan to at some point.
ReplyDeleteLove these photos Sandy! Big Hugs!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful area.
ReplyDeleteTanto la urbanización como la Naturaleza resulta una belleza en tus buenas fotos.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Beautiful random photos of the area you live in.
ReplyDeleteI love the colorful homes and the scenery is spectacular.

You live in such a gorgeous area. My favorites are anything near Arrowhead, but I love all your photos. The trails are so inviting!
ReplyDeleteLinda, thanks - Lake Arrowhead is like our second home minus a house and boat to live in and pay in the water, lol...I would need to win a lottery. The reason I love it is because there are more areas to walk on trails than where we live near Lake Gregory - there is the trail around the lake and of course town and such but it gets old - same scenery. I only love the change of seasons and then I like to get photos again.
ReplyDeleteSue - thanks ... I'm a big lover of photographing houses. Basically when I got my first digital camera - that hobby took off, lol ..
thanks Stacy, CJ and Antonia.
