calling MDvarden/vaden?

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

Mr vaden/varden, some time ago you posted an image that has stuck with me ever since, it was a large bracket I think on a seqioua, it looked similar to ganoderma lucidum, but knew it was not.

 

i have been doing some research for my current project and came across a species called ganoderma oregonense and feel this must be the one!

 

can we see it again:001_cool: im planning a trip for 2012 for my 40th and this kind of thing is what i will seek on visiting the old growth!

Just dropped in. And saw someone linked you to where I used the image. Here's another of it.

 

Also, in the same park - Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park - not far from where that photo was taken with my son, another nice one was seen when I hiked with my brother last winter.

 

So here's a repost of the previous larger + the other one with my brother looking up at it. Both were taken in winters.

Now ... I'd been itching to get more hiking in down there since the last half of November, but some work, our son's new job and a rash of big rain storms left no opportunity for me. Then last week, I saw what looked like a 3 day gap in the rain. Expected overcast and dry, but it turned out to be like gloriously sunny with popcorn clouds in the distance.

 

Not only is winter awesome to hike the redwoods, but the atmosphere was maybe the best I've ever seen this last week. Light morning mist with suns rays, mineral filled creeks showing blue color between the trees. Seasonal brooks could be heard throughout the forest.

 

Here's a few images: my new 12-24mm lens remained on my camera almost the whole time.
