Description
We drove up the Oregon Coast and took this road thru Prairie Creek Redwoods Park. It's amazing, and it even impressed me and I live near other redwoods. Those that grow on the coast are even bigger than than some other and that's BIG!! These are old growth redwood and can be over 1000 years old. whew!!

What a great road. Imagine how much better it would be if you got rid of those damn tress. ;) (Great shot Marilyn) Seriously though, what a beautiful place. The nearest I have ever come to seeing trees like this was at Mariposa Grove in Yosemite.

Amazingly, we're only seeing the lower portions of these magnificent beasts, and yet they encroach us totally. Your road shots have been wonderful, Marilyn, you have an eye for paths and roadways. And this one shows just what roads and paths do: They emerge from a close, shadowed place, and move into light. The foreground trees cast deep shadows (and are 'in' deep shadows) and you chose to make that your foreground, rather than light (which is a more obvious choice). So the light emerges in the back instead. I think this is very expressive; and the feeling, as we go back, is that the trees are packed in there and they're grand. A very knowing shot, I think it shows that you know these sights like you know your own backyard. Beautiful and mysterious, a fine pov.

I am always thrilled with places like this. Tara claims I've become a real tree-hugger. Your photo oozes atmosphere...love it.

When we came through there in the fall on the way to see you, we had to take 101 (which is bad enough) because we were driving the motorhome. Maybe one day we can take that secondary road through the park. (No pig-in-a-poke roads when you take up as much room as we do! LOL!) This is just gorgeous.

Nice work. I haven't been that way for a couple of years but I remember the feeling of awe looking at those trees.

This is a GREAT photo! It superbly captures the feeling you get traveling in the company of these giants.

On the road again, Can't wait to get on the road again…... One thousand years? Even older than that, Maz. A great shot, but also spooky, in this capture of the road and antediluvian redwoods , Marilyn
