    That does add appeal to the concept of walking down the length of a downed tree.

    Sorry for the low res of the image. It is from a 4x5 negative that I print to 20" in the longest dimension...works very well in that size. I have also printed the image full-frame -- the image I posted is only the bottom half of the negative -- there is nothing but trees in the upper half of the image, with that curved tree continuing its arc.

    Frank -- redwood bark is relatively soft with no splinters.

    Rick -- one never knows what one will find! I took this in 1986. The fallen redwood is now a forest of its own -- completely covered with huckleberries and other berries and young trees growing right off the fallen tree.

    Gandolfi,
    That's just terrific. She did very well not to recieve any splinters.

    Gandolfi, that is just a beautiful straight portrait. The similar tone throughout makes for a very cohesive, restful image. I do suggest, though, that the model eat a few hamburgers.

    It's a great photo, and the perfect model for that pose.

    I think Kala looks great just as she is... No need for hamburgers.

    And a lovely photo of her, great tonality and composition.

    If you believe you can, or you believe you can't... you're right.
