Welcome to the Up from the UnderStory project blog! Make yourself at home. Click on posts. Share your comments.
What is an understory? The understory is the part of the forest that grows under the tree canopy. It's a shady area made up of a mixture of plants which usually need more light to leaf out and grow.
And that's what our project is about. Shining a light on how a diverse group of rural residents in the forested Sierra foothills of California are creating new paths toward community revitalization.
This blog is about community, collaboration, and change. It's a space to bring together a network of people who are interested in the community renewal efforts of the Blue Mountain towns of West Point, Wilseyville, Glencoe, and Railroad Flat in
A group of Blue Mountain area youth are using cameras and computers to share their perspectives and showcase local change efforts. We invite you to view their work, give feedback, and share your own stories of community change.

Grant - It's cool to see your reflection in the first photo. It seems like the flash is pretty weak since the shadows on Danielle's face are pretty strong in the last photo - but it definitely works in the second photo. I like the blurry background in that one - was the aperture set low?

It was good to see all of you working on this project at WP school the other day. It looked like a great turnout. I can't wait to read all the stuff you have helped to put together. And see your photo and video stories!
