2026 LAPC #399: Stuck in Place

On Haigler Loop

 Egidio is this week’s host for the Lens-Artist Photo Challenge. She has asked us to limit our movement to within 10-15 steps in any direction from our focal point. Capture what we see from various angles and perspectives as we are Stuck in Place.

My images are all taken from within a few steps from Lake Haigler on the Haigler Loop Trail while hiking with Coleman.

I began taking pictures while Coleman sat on a bench looking out upon Lake Haigler.

Looking up from the same spot to capture what was hanging from the trees above the lake.

Fishing Bobbers stuck in the tree.

Then I turned around and saw interesting shoe prints on the trail. Here’s a comparison of the shoe print with Coleman’s shoe.

Turning to the left and to the left we acquired these interesting views …

And to the right …

Where is Coleman going?
Not to the bridge,
but where?

Still to the right …

The Lake Haigler Spillway
Where’s the water?
The Spillway is so dry.

Insufficient rain,
no water is flowing
from the Spillway.

Which Way Challenge 2026 (CWWC): Any Which Way (Your Choice) [05.08.2026]

Welcome back to another Which Way Challenge (CWWC). I trust everyone has had a good week and able to spend some time to take a walk or hike in the vast outdoors. This week’s theme is CWWC: Any Which Way (Your Choice). The Which Way can be any path, sidewalk, trail, or road as long as the Which Way is clearly discernible. As always signs are always welcome.

For further information regarding the Which Way Challenge (CWWC) feel free to check out the home page here.

For this week’s Which Way Challenge I have chosen to share a Which Way Coleman and I hiked back in 2022 when he was three years old. The hike along Lake Haigler Loop Trail at Anne Springs Close Greenway came up in my photo memories, so I thought y’all might enjoy seeing it as well.

Here are my entries …
