Description
On a mid-autumn morning after a nice little dusting of snow I decided to take a walk on the Bizz Johnson Trail in the Susan River Canyon. “The Bizz,” as it’s known by us locals, is part of the Rails to Trails Conservancy (railstotrails.org) which promotes using defunct railroad grades as hiking, biking, riding trails across the nation. It runs from Westwood California down to Susanville California, a bit over 20 miles, much of it right along the shore of the beautiful Susan River.
I walked from the Devil’s Corral trailhead a down to just past one of the two tunnels the trail goes though. On the way back I was struck by the way the tunnel opening framed the trail and surrounding scenery and felt compelled to capture this photograph.
NOTE: The tunnel portion of this image probably looks a bit brighter on the screen than it will look printed. I have printed this image locally though and it looks wonderful - dark to contrast with the outside scene, yet still showing some detail in the walls of the tunnel. It's just nearly impossible to make a backlit screen match a print on deep shadows, even on my well calibrated high end monitor.
UPDATE - January 2024
This image was published as the cover image of the Lassen Municipal Utility District's Ruralite Magazine, a northern California regional publication after being selected as one of the winners in the Ruralite cover photo contest.
