Well, hell, I was going to let someone else go first, since I went first in January, but nobody’s posting anything!
I call this one “Monuments”. I was out walking close to the border between Queens and Brooklyn, where there are a lot of cemeteries. The juxtaposition of the tombstones in the foreground and the skyscrapers of Manhattan in the background struck me.
It’s not big OR small so much as big and small versions of the same shape…
Daughter’s comment on my macro photo effort was “Cool, Dad, where’d ya get the big
nickel”. Must be a matter of perception. So, it’s small toad or big nickel, take your pick.
This is Memorial Point on Lake Tahoe. When I came home from this vacation and looked over my photos, I didn’t remember putting my camera on the ground to take this picture. Then I saw the tiny photographer amongst the stones – these rocks are not regular gravel in the foreground!
Anyway, this photo is an optical illusion to my eyes.
More redwoods - here is the Dyerville Giant in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in CA, which was once thought to be the tallest tree in the world. It fell during a storm in 1991:
The giant redwood once stood 362 ft. tall and was considered the tallest tree in the park before its fall in 1991. The redwood’s crash to the ground moved the earth so much that it registered on a nearby seismograph and one local, who heard the impact from half a mile away, thought a train had crashed.
