Pat and her husband took a walk in Redwood Park in Arcata, California where Pat grew up to find a scene she could use in her work.
"The walk was slow. When I saw the stairway, inspiration hit! Usually I try to eliminate any 'man-made' elements in my pictures - but for some reason this stairway appealed to me. The sun was shining down the stairs and in this shot there was a weed or vine that showed itself to great advantage. When we came home and I viewed all of the shots - this was the one I decided to try."
