Me standing by the Big Tree in Redwood National Forest. Almost 300ft (87 meters) tall, and about 1,800 old. Pretty amazing. The trail has many trees like this one.

這場近千年的對決，你挺哪一邊?!
(前陣子不管是英雄電影還是恐怖電影都愛搞對決風，既然如此自然景觀也可以來對決一下吧....！XDD
在這也要特別感謝站在龜殼上的那位紅衣服大哥~因為有他這麼顯眼才能顯示神龜的龐大阿.....哈哈XDD

Notice the eagle nest in the upper center of the image. This is the nest occupied by the birds in many of my recent images of bald eagles.

Considering I was walking in the Big Tree forest, it occurred to me that centring a big tree might be a good place to start. Then, zoom out and try to compose an image around it.
Including the path seemed a good second step. Then including that small tree at the edge of the path would help with depth. The one between the two larger foreground trees. It gives the viewers eyes a place to wonder toward. As for the rest, it appears to have flow.
Back to Big Tree forest and a walk through the forest. While it is a pleasant and peaceful trek with birds singing, my eyes are not seeing any compositions. After reaching a point deep into the hike, it is time to turn a round.
But, it is now one hour later and the forest has taken on a very different look. The suns rays have moved, and some of what was lit is now in shadow. More importantly for a composition, some of what was in shadow, is now lit.
