Back-lit Oak by Dusty Trail

Farm Bypass Trail, Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve, Santa Clara County, CA, 9/14/2008

On the afternoon previous to the one seen here, two friends of mine and I hiked the Farm Bypass Trail of Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve past this very spot. Upon walking around a bend and seeing this view, I immediately loved the way the late afternoon sunlight silhouetted the oak tree and painted the leaves in glowing hues, beckoning us down the trail. I returned the following day, waited for the scene to clear of other hikers, and made this photograph. The 3,800 acre Rancho San Antonio is located in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains by the town of Los Altos Hills, CA.
