Took this shot in Longview, WA last year. I was actually back here today, dropping off an empty trailer at Keystone Paper. We haul large rolls of paper to companies that use it to make corrugated cardboard boxes. (8 rolls weight over 40,000 LBS, which is enough to fill our 53' trailers.) When trees are logged, places like this is where they start the process of becoming all the many things we use wood for.

"It's Natural to be Afraid"/ Explosions in the Sky
The driver taking forward the 12.44pm Carlisle Yard - Chirk Kronospan log train (6J37), waits patiently for the arriving driver to collect his belongings from the cab at Warrington's Bank Quay station. Colas unit 56105 is doing the honours.
An image not previously uploaded but one I thought deserved a run-out, not least for die-hard 'Grid' fans. This was one of the last railway shots I took with the part-frame EOS 7D before upgrading to the full-frame 5D, a move I've never regretted (it's still my main camera with no current plans to replace).
I had little luck processing this one at the time, but today's software has rendered it more than passable - technically if not artistically.

A large log left behind from a flood and now on the shore of the lagoon at Mogareeka Inlet near Tathra on the Far South Coast of NSW. Hancock Bridge, in the background, spans the Bega River on the road from Tathra to Bermagui, which is the next coastal town to the north.
A chipmunk pauses on a moss-covered log with one front paw raised. The side profile provides a clear view of its markings while the soft green background keeps attention on the animal. The photograph was made with an OM System OM-1, Olympus 300mm f/4 lens, and MC-14 teleconverter.
That was the only drop of sunshine we saw all day yesterday, just as it fell below the horizon! But on the plus side, the sea had dropped this big log on the beach for me to use as foreground :)

Many of my pictures are available to buy as prints, canvasses or acrylics at:
Captain's logs star date Sept 2022.- winding through route 99 and making another stop for eye popping scenery. No wonder the 7 hour trip took 13 hours.
Another way of seeing the countryside is using these log rafts. I think that the canoes were a little better though - rather more maneuverable through the rapids
I never paid much attention to this old log barn until now, but it stands out beautifully against the frosty trees. I wonder why it was built using vertical logs. Every year we have a few days when heavy fog freezes, creating beautiful frosty scenery.
Silver birch deadfall caught on the rocks. A focus stack of three images.
PLEASE: Do not post any comment graphics, they will be deleted. See info in my bio.
This is another one that I check periodically when in the area for other reasons. The right side has collapsed considerably since the last visit and the top of the chimney has fallen off.
Another shot from Lost Maples SP... the tree fell at some point and has become a welcoming host for the moss growing here.

In the Forest at the LEwis and Clark National Historic park there were many trees that had fallen and were in various stages of decay.
