Description
A gnarly, twisted redwood tree in Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park in northern California. It's on Hwy 101 and we always take this road instead of the freeway. The trees are huge and never fail to amaze me. It's especially beautiful this time of year when the deciduous trees are turning. The contrast of the golds and yellows against the deep green on the redwoods is spectacular.

Marilyn, I know you posted pics just this week, but I'm behind on several from before, so I'm just jumping-in and trying to catch up. I'm only doing a small number in the galleries this week (for time and other things going on right now), but when I return I'll do a lot more. But at least I want to comment on some of the pieces you've been posting in the last couple of months.
I'm with the comments above, I thought this was a terrific shot. ("thought"---past tense---as I saw it about a day after you posted it.) It just hurtles down from the top of the shot, and flares out like a big monster on stilts. Wonderful motion from top to bottom. And the light is almost dissolving and mystical. It's a wonderful sight, to be sure; but your eye captured the muscle and huge flare of its lower torso, and the way the trunk flares out like pillars to a deep mansion. Really well seen---beautiful work. You're so at home with these environs, you shoot them as if they were your close friends...
