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 order to fit the whole tree in the frame.
Many of these Redwood Trees that I viewed for 3 days are so HUGE that a person has to have special lens on their camera or step back so far that the trees look small. Here are the bottoms of some other Redwoods with a person standing by them.
VB will be sharing more photos of the Redwoods I viewed on my trip and some very interesting stats on how HUGE and fascinating these "Living Creatures" are. I will also be sharing some video of these GIANTS next week.
