Nice shots. Agreed about "alot of time on their hands" regarding the topiary thing. I used to start a bunch of those in business, but quit fairly quick. Too time consuming even for pay. I tend to thin and train more or less natural. As far as California redwoods, I've got more on the page and it's links below, that I do on webshots: http://www.mdvaden.com/grove_of_titans.shtml

Hi M-hiker. Thanks for a VERY interesting tour via your thoughtful camera work, and your interest in all the scenes and subjects shown! I agree with (all) you found interesting to capture! ~ Happy Trails! Sincerely, Gary in Seattle
