Here in Malibu
 

escondido falls

I always try and never quite succeed to get a good shot of Escondido Falls, the seasonal rimfall that makes such a splash (sorry) here every time it rains. My lens isn't long enough and something about the green green green of the hills this time of year flattens things out. Let's face it, with a camera, I'm an amateur. But here it is anyway, a double waterfall that, when there's enough rain, springs right out of the rocks and tumbles hundreds of feet to the pools below.

* Thank you to everyone who emailed to (once again) urge me to get over my personal vendetta against the impenetrable nature of Photoshop, one of the most counter-intuitive programs ever invented. Lenny from Arizona even sent along a little tutorial and here, just below, is my newly-juiced photo.
