Thanks, guys
Steve, no it's not. It's just the byproduct of how trees are grown in some parts of the country here: an area of trees (of the same species/type) is planted at the same time, grown up, and when they are ripe/grown enough for cutting, all of them are cut down. New ones are planted again... I'm not a forest engineer or whatever, so can't comment if it's good or bad, but it's just how it is...
(there are very few forest fires here in the Czech Republic, and if they are, usually they are very limited... nowhere near the disasters there are in other parts of the world - so no fire trail too)

Steve, both are beautiful. Georgia was a long field trip!
Beautiful, Steve. I really like the back light on the moss in the first one, and the shadow of the fence in the second.

Great images everyone!
While not attempting to hi-jack the thread (I didn't see another place to post this and my thinking is that posters to this thread are more likely to have the answer), does anyone know the name of these trees which are found in southern Chile near Puerto Natales:
Thanks,
