Rainfall on the Smith River

Posted by Stephen Phillips (San Francisco, United States) on 5 October 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This is the northern most major river in coastal California. Here, just above the Jedediah Smith Redwoods State & National Parks.

[notebook]: This image was loaded before I left on my trip to Oregon. Ironically - as I drove along this same stretch on Friday - it was raining heavily. The rain was so heavy - I couldn't have taken a photograph if I'd wanted to. This is rare this early into the wet season. Major rains don't usually fall on California until well into November.

I was thrilled at the imagery I captured these past two days. I hope to begin sharing them here - beginning Monday. It is good to be home. As I type this - it is raining heavily on my living room window in San Francisco.
