After 3 years using the city of Portland at night for monitor background, I switched to this image yesterday. Bull Creek Flats in Humboldt Redwoods State Park.

Damnation Creek trail ... two hikers with their dog, pause to watch the last few minutes of sunset light through the coast redwoods.

When the Fat Lady sings ...

 

Find the tiny human next to the coast redwood ...

Autumn color is just beginning now in the coast redwood forest. Yellow is predominant, with some reds on plants like vine maple and poison-oak.

 

Here's a landmark redwood called Big Tree.

[Arctostaphylos uva-ursi]

When the Fat Lady sings ...

 

Find the tiny human next to the coast redwood ...

 

That is a stonker. Any idea of the height?

Whereabouts is this tree?

Tell me that tiny human shot's an illusion Mario.

 

That has to be multiple trees shot from an angle that makes them appear to be one giant trunk?

 

Awe inspiring photo nonetheless!

Part of it is the selective angle and composition. there's actually a redwood in there that would probably impress you as much if I showed it all by itself but I am not ready to reveal it yet other than a peek.

Over 300 ft. Redwood National and State Parks where the largest grow. There's 300 ft. coast redwoods there and also down in Humboldt Redwoods State Park too.

Just ordered a test print on photo paper of this image yesterday. I will be ordering a 40 inch x 60 inch canvas print / or 101 cm to 152 cm canvas as metric. Hopefully you have a computer monitor ... I count 4 fungi conks on the broken trunk behind. Details the size of a pea show in the full size image file.
