Looking up at the canopy of trees along the Outlaw Trail at Brighton State Recreation Area.
Below is the view from under the canopy from the exact same spot.

Posted for The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Under the Canopy
Beautiful canopy! I love shooting up, and not just at birds! 😉 C
I have been trying to remind myself to look up more often. 😉
Funny how the forest can look so different depending on the angle at which you’re looking
Absolutely right! That is one of the reasons I enjoy going back to family trails. Different seasons, lighting, and angles changes everything. 😁
It’s beautiful! I like the word “canopy” you used here.
Thanks but I have to give Dale the credit for the use of “canopy” since the post was in response to his challenge prompt – Under the Canopy. 😉
I looked for that blogger’s post with the fisheye lens. It is here. I searched on Sabine’s home page and she had other fisheye lens posts, but I liked this featured image pic as it reminded me of yours and there are other fisheye lens pics in here as well.

Thanks so much for the link, Linda. I just went over to have a look. Interesting results that look like fun. 😁
You’re welcome Pepper. I thought you might like to try this and it is available for Android phones as well as iPhones. At least you get an idea here how much fun Sabine had with the lens. 🙂
Thanks again. You are very thoughtful, Linda. 😊
Thank you Pepper. That is kind of you to say that. When I Google for the DIA Inside/Out 2026, I see some of the cities hosting artwork are popping up in my search as the DIA has already set up some displays, but the final list of all exhibits in all counties hasn’t been officially published by the DIA yet.
Thanks for the information, Linda. 😉
You’re welcome Pepper.
Very nice Pepper – a fellow blogger used to take a similar photo in the woods near her home in Portland, Oregon. Most of the time she used a camera, but, she also walked with her iPhone and installed a fisheye lens and got a very interest effect.
Thanks, Linda. Oh, it would be so fun to try a fisheye lens! 😁
I thought you might find this fun – Sabine had some fun hikes – she would have been a good candidate for “One Step at a Time” with her posts.
A beautifully healthy tree canopy, Pepper. Lovely capture.
Thanks, Lynette. 😉
So pretty.
Thanks, Egidio. This has become one of my favorite trails. 😊
Looking up is always rewarding! 👍🏼
I couldn’t agree with you more. 😉
Beautiful!
Thanks! So glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Lovely!
Thanks, Rupali. 😊
I like looking up into the canopies of tall trees
I often forget to look up but I am so glad I looked this time. 😉
Wow, those are some seriously imposing trees, thank you
Yes, they are. It was my first time on this trail and I can’t wait to go back. 😊
I am curious to know your thoughts.
