Even though it was late June, the weather was wet and rainy for most of the trip, which actually worked out extremely well. I was able to get some photos with a very cool season feel to them.

One of my favorite spots on the trip was the road to Lazy Creek Winery. The lush forest with beautiful moss covered trees was a stunning subject, and I spent several hours exploring the photographic possibilities of a couple of hundred yards of road.

I also took the opportunity to hike through the old growth redwood groves at Hendy Woods State Park. There were some beautiful trails, and of course, I took my camera along.

Overall, it was a productive and enjoyable trip. Though it was a business trip, I managed to get in some personal photography - and wine tasting - as well.
