You'll be surprised what slips through the cracks. Often photos that I considered "rejects" at the time seem much more worthy now. The difference, of course, is that I did not have a scanner for the first 20 years of my photographic career and as a result there are lots of neglected negatives and transparencies in my files that were never printed or even contact printed. You probably scan as you go; I wonder how that will affect your future archive in terms of buried treasures. Time will tell.

Here's a map + compass hike through a young forest, enjoying a 20-30 year break from the lumberjacks. (Cascade mountains, Wash. state)
I wonder if the trees have any inkling of their future doom?
The two Western Trilliums down there love moist forests like this in broken sun. Here's a crop with some added contrast. After the shot, I called it a day, cleared that spot in the center of the first image, and pitched my tent. The forest floor is so cushiony and comfortable, it's easy to fall asleep, but difficult to get up in the morning.

My grandmother always scolded us that if we picked a trillium it wouldn't bloom again for 7 years. Can anyone validate that?
Heroique, I love the depth of your first shot.

Trilliums are also called "Wake-Robins," because they bloom just when the robins re-appear, or "wake up" for a new season. I read that in a book on plants, but I see it happen every spring, too. Another good reason not to pick them!Quote:
