I kept waiting for the "perfect lighting" to capture the "perfect picture," until I realized that if I kept waiting, there would be no more beautiful orange leaves to photograph. We have been blessed with the return of the good ol' #humboldtcounty rainy season! ☔️ And this tree is even brighter amidst all these rain clouds 🍁🍂
