Maris, that is a great image of an awesome tree!
Thanks for the kudo.
Australia has millions of Snow Gums in the altitude band between 1200 metres and 1800 metres but very few of them are truly ancient. The grove of giant trees where the pictured specimens grow has not seen fire for more than 300 years.
In the United States these magnificent trees would be given individual names. In Australia they prosper because they are crooked. If they were straight they would have been saw-logs a hundred years ago.
Photography:first utterance. Sir John Herschel, 14 March 1839 at the Royal Society. "...Photography or the application of the Chemical rays of light to the purpose of pictorial representation,..".
Here are a couple of images from my recent trip in October to Jedidiah Smith Redwoods. Both are carbon transfer prints.

Oh, I forgot to tell you I need to move up your way! When you can shoot from the road, I mean come on! As it was I think I had the 11x14 set up at the same time or was it the 8x20 and 11x14? All I know is it was magic that day! BTW, thanks and as you know the prints in the flesh are something to see.

Are those 8x10 or 11x14 -- the proportions look like 8x10
I don't reconize the trees -- Jed Smith?
