::oldie but goodie::

Today I was working on some semi-old photos that have been languishing while waiting for me to have a little extra time.
They're from our trip to California this last Feb. The trip was so fast, and things were so crazy I hardly got a chance to post anything about it, so I'll probably be posting some of it soon--maybe backdated, maybe not. We'll see.
But here's something awesome.
Taken in the redwood forest in northern CA. (The GIANT redwood forest that is.)
kris & redwood
I put together I think about 9 photos to make this composite. It's obviously not totally true to life because the tree looks like it's curving funny, but it gives you a better feel for the immensity of the old trees than any of my other photos.

Kris is there at the bottom, could you see him?
If you click here you can see a larger version of the composite.
Crazy, isn't it?
If you want to feel insignificant, I can tell you where to go....

We finally have internet for just a few minutes, it's been hard to come by so far on our jaunt through California.
So here are a fun photos of the natural beauty we've been enjoying while driving through northern CA. It's beautiful, and the air is so fresh. It smells great.
Enjoy!

The beginning of the mountains north west of Sacramento. I bet with leaves on the trees they're even prettier.

Clear Lake. It was gorgeous.

All the rain was worth it for this beautiful rainbow.

Humbolt Bay, way up north in Eureka.

We're having fun--we'll be heading south down the coast tomorrow.
