How Do You Fall? Clark Park

I don't know how it is for you guys, but Thanksgiving Day is just like an ordinary Thursday for me. Well... as ordinary of a day as one can have. I had the day off, and I was going to make sure I would use it to its fullest extent.

Around 9:00 or 10:00 in the morning I took off down the street to Clark Regional Park in Fullerton,CA. I've been here before. In fact, it was the first park I took my brand new used DSLR to for a test spin. Back then, I wasn't good at taking pictures with that type of camera. You think less when you're out shooting with them. At least that's how I feel every time I go and shoot my medium format camera.

This park has always been a fun place to go. Its a mixture of a regular city park, a small but decent size nature reserve and everything in between. This time around, I took the long and scenic route instead of checking out the middle of the park like I did on my first trip, many moons ago. The scenic route is a trail that basically follows the boundaries of the park. My arrangement today basically starts at the entrance to the park and working my way around. Hope you like them!

I really like 4, 6 and 7.
9 messes with your perception the way the tree is in relation to the cars in the background, I like it.
22 I kinda scratched my head at first and then realized you were probably at the edge of the top of a hill.
And 29, I like because of the fence. Thanks for the virtual tour, it was fun. The animals in the concrete holding the sign at the start of the park are cute too.

That tree in #9 was a weird one because it looked like it was crimped in the middle and it hadn't broken off. To be honest, I was worried about getting anything good because it was a fairly boring park. After looking through them again, I'm surprised I got as many good ones as I did. Thanks Susie! :-)
Wow, some of them really look like they could be in Aus. Great shots.

I actually came to hijack your comments and let you know I'm doing a bloghop from next Sun (9th Dec) with the theme My Town - photo/s of regular everyday things that normally take for granted. I'd love it if you joined in... because I'd look like a total loser if I have a blog hop with just myself :) Will post details this week.

Hey! that sounds awesome! I'd love to join in on that. I've never done one of those before. :-)
Too many sweet shots to single any out, but I'd forgotten how nice fall weather in SoCal can be...

This one really showed how much I've grown since I first came here about 8 months ago. This is the time of the year I like living in So Cal. Up until about April or May, then the weather goes to hell.
