In this blog post, I have part 2 of my photos from Redwood Regional Park in Oakland, CA. The photos for today are of flowers, mushrooms, plants, and scenery. They are all shot on or near Stream Trail.

Message From The Photographer: If you've been following me on social media, you'd know I've been dealing with vision impairment and gradual vision loss since August 2018. The conditions are neurological, so my vision isn't impaired the same amount on a daily basis, but overall it seems to be going down hill. It has slowed down and made taking photos, processing photos, using computers, etc... very challenging and somewhat depressing. Some days it is impossible for me to take photos or process them. I know these photos are from a very long time ago, but I'm only just starting to get around in processing them as I'm only able to work on them at a very slow pace. I hope you can understand, and I hope you enjoy viewing the photos.

Redwood Regional Park - Oakland, CA (Cellphone Photos)

I took a walk on Stream Trail in Redwood Regional Park in Oakland, CA last Friday on April 14th, 2017. I shot quite a lot of cellphone photos while I was there. Normally I'd post my cellphone photos the same day I shoot them, but I was very tired that day, and I was busy the whole weekend, so this is why I only got to it today. The travel vlog for April will come out next month.

As a lot of you know, the San Francisco Bay Area was hit with several mega storms few months back. In the photos you will see the aftermath of the storm. Not all is bad though because wild flowers are blooming like crazy!
