I took this photo early one misty morning in Forks, WA on the Olympic peninsula just outside the Hoh Rain Forest on the Olympic peninsula.
Although I've lived in the city all my life, I experience a deep joy and contentment when I find myself out in the middle of nowhere. When I look at this image, I remember the crisp air, the breakfast of blackberries picked from the bounty growing all over the property, the cows crossing the road in the distance past the mist, the deer drinking their fill of morning dew, and the cat walking along the road who had greeted me like a friend when I stepped out of our cabin.
