Abstract
Burnt Redwood
The Mariposa Grove in Yosemite National Park is known for its huge Sequoia trees. Most visitors probably walk right past their down and dead cousins on the forest floor, but I was drawn to the intricate patterns and amazing textures of these burnt trees. It was hard to find good light on the bark, but I found a partially hollowed out log and used the reflections of direct light on the opposite side to give the side I was shooting its special glow.
