Above the noise and people in Tenerife. The national Parks are stunning... and truely peaceful, not a sound. This photo was taken in Parque Natural Corona Forestal.
Direct sunlight penetrates the dense redwood forest along the border between Redwood National Park and Jedediah Smith Redwood State Park. This collection of parks is known collectively as the Redwood National and State Parks and encompasses some truly amazing groves of giants. This grove is dominated by 300 ft tall giants, making me feel like an ant in comparison. It was sunny this afternoon here and that makes for challenging shooting in the forest. I spied this tiny shaft of sunlight raking across the ferns and I think I captured the feeling of this spot.
Laurisilva forest, or laurel forest, is a subtropical evergreen broadleaf forest type with high humidity. And calling the humidity high, is a bit of an understatement. After few hours my camera was dripping with water and the auto-focus motor in my objective actually jammed, and I had to let it dry before it started working again. Photo was taken in Garajonay national park on the island of La Gomera, one of the less known Canary islands.

Our Daily Challenge - Sharp 3/8/11
This quilt was made for my sister, whose wants were specifically vague enough to make this a very challenging project for me. In the end we are both pleased with how it all turned out, however, which is very satisfying. It looks better in person, I think, less gaudy than it shows in pictures.
Hiking in one of America's best ideas, Olympic National Park. Here you can see me contemplating the "necessity of suffering." A hike without self-reflection-through-pain, just wouldn't be a good hike now would it?
