Vegas Bob would like to wish everyone a "Good Night" from the Redwoods in northern California.

giant redwoods: Vegas Bob explains with Photographs & Stats just how BIG Redwood Trees can get - 09/17/11 04:34 PM

 
Founders Tree is located in Founders Grove along the Avenue of Giants in Northern California and is one of the bigger Redwood Trees, but not the biggest.
Founders Tree was very difficult for Vegas Bob to photograph because of it's height, but I did in the photo (below) these paragraphs. If you look real close you can see this sign in the photo above and below at the bottom of the photo. VB had to use a (wide-angle) lens that is borderline fish-eye if you know about camera lenes. I also had to turn my camera around vertically in … (15 comments)

Well "Labor Day" is over and my family has gone back to the Midwest. It was a wonderful weekend celebrating my father's 75th Birthday and spending some time with many other family members.
Vegas Bob and family spent most of his time down on Fremont Street with all the tourists, which I am not use to doing. Listening to slot machines, music bands, light shows and so much more has really got my ears and nerves on end. I really don't know how people can work around all this noise, it would drive VB crazy after a short … (12 comments)

They are headed back to the Midwest so VB is going to get … (18 comments)

giant redwoods: Native American "Spirits" of the Redwoods, "Orbs" or just "Prisms" from the Lens? - 10/15/10 11:52 PM


Native American "Spirits" of the Redwoods, "Orbs" or just "Prisms" from the Lens?
 
This "Redwood Tree" in this photograph is around 3000 years old and there could have been many "Spirits" dancing or walking around this old tree after all these years.
I took hundreds of photographs of the Redwoods in Northern California looking towards the sun and this is one of the only ones that has this strange looking effect.
