Someone in Humboldt County, California, requested some redwood photos for something ... and here's one of the photos from today.

 

The sun came out too bright, very early, so we improvised and used a few locations in Prairie Creek redwoods I haven't utilized much before.

 

That is one lovely butt!

Here's one from the set taken vertically.

 

Put this on Facebook this morning and it got 15,000 views in just 3 hours.

It may be in the thread already, but did you make it to Howland Hill Road that passes through Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park?

 

Not the paved Hy. 199, but the other dirt road.

I'm not sure in all honesty. We just kept driving and stopping. We did little side roads here and there but it all became a blur of huge trees.

The one place that sometimes feels like a "blur of huge trees" is on Hy. 101 just before Crescent City, because the speed limit of 55 mph to 65 mph keeps the forest moving by at a pretty good clip unless I pull over.

 

Here's a sideways look from the Howland Hill Road in Jedediah Smith through some Bigleaf Maple ...

Mario, it was all a blur of big trees for me. I've never seen that many giants in one place and I'm glad you encouraged me to spend some time around there. We drove a few of the roads several times, very much stop start so as to get plenty of photos.

Next to a Douglas Fir.

Very atmospheric photo, love it.

Is it HDR as there looks to be plenty of detail in the darks and lights.
