Oof. I have a number of tree photos I like, but in the spirit of… um… in the spirit of showing recent work, here’s a tree that I’ve shot dozens of different times, but particularly like this one from a couple of weeks ago.
ETA: does anyone have a better site than Imgur that’s free? I want to share a larger version of this but apparently Imgur says no.
Photo taken at night at the Devonian Botanical Gardens’ in Edmonton. It was about -25c here, which contributed to the ghostly look. The photo is an HDR composite of multiple images.
If this looks familiar it’s because it’s one of the pictures I considered but didn’t use for last month’s theme.
Sure, I could go out and take some fall foliage pictures, but the majesty of the redwoods is going to be hard to top. Not only are they some of the world’s tallest trees, they’re the world’s largest living things. And the oldest, living up to 2000 years. It’s really difficult to get any sense of scale in a photo.
Taken at Humboldt Redwoods State Park, California, in the fall of 2021.
