Redwood Forest, Morning. Muir Woods National Monument, California. February 28, 2009. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
Filtered morning light in the redwood forest at Muir Woods National Monument, California.
I got up early on Saturday morning, February 28 and was on the well before dawn – through San Francisco, across the Golden Gate Bridge, and on to Muir Woods. The park wasn’t open when arrived – though one can still get it – and it appeared that I was the second visitor to arrive. The sky was overcast, with occasional breaks that allowed the sun to filter through the redwoods at times – all of which amounts to pretty much ideal light for photographing the forest at Muir Woods.

If this were hanging in someone’s bedroom it might make her feel like she was out in the forrest somewhere. Right now she doesn’t enjoy that feeling. (Not that there aren’t other photos and other places she would enjoy as well.) Right now she sees several very blank walls. She only feels, looking at blank walls, like she is looking inside her own head. But maybe that’s just because she is a very empty person.

Yep, I’m just that witty.
