Description
Ah-- home, as sweet as it can be. I get to drive thru places like this to get here, and have these scenes almost in my own backyard. Course those surfers in Socal aren't so bad either!!

PRETTY!!
Yeah but surfers aren'r as cool and green as these places. And the air is a lot better up your way. Beautiful capture, makes me want to go exploring.
Lookin' good!
wonderful capture and looks a littlebit mystical !!
Wonderful
Where was this Marilyn? Gotta be someplace in Humboldt County. The light here is quite mysterious.
Beautiful natural lighting, and soft shot- thanks for sharing! :)

Excellent shot!
You are soooo lucky to live in such a beautiful place.

Magical and lovely!
I'd take a picture of what I have to go through in order to get home but the only problem with that is that I don't want to immortalize it. I prefer scenes like this, and as for scenes like this...what a gorgeous shot! WOW! This is simply amazing. It reminds me of so many different things, but also Ursula K. LeGuin's Eminent Grove: where all of the trees in Earthsea come from...of course when you walk through the grove, there's magic everywhere, and the trees aren't always where you remember them. Oh, there are always trees, but they're often different each time they look. This reminds me of that, because there's a particular poetry in her descriptions of it, and there's a similar kind of poetry in this image, and well...what's life without some form of poetic truth? This is a super image! I like it immensely!
this is a beautiful capture my friend :)
wonderful lighting
It loks better than mine right now with frank sick and I just got out of the hospital we have ajungle back there yours at least has alook of mysterious!
Ah, the redwoods!
A wonderful shot Marilyn and fantastic use of natural lighting. Dana
This is definitely an inward vision, an impressionistic vision, born of one who's lived with this beauty all their lives. It's not the vision of a newcomer---not that newcomers couldn't get great beauty here, but that no newcomer could see so deeply into this place and do it with such ease. (A newcomer---me, for example?---would no doubt dramatize everything, where as your vision is comfortable as an old comforter on a cool night.) This image is comfortable with mystery; there's lots of darkness here, but you make no effort to dispel it. And the light on the trees in the back (along with the patches of leaves that are able to catch some sun) speak of whole worlds that you show without elucidating them---ie, part of the mystery of your home, that it's loaded with sight-ways into huge new worlds which you may visit---but may not. It's just how that area is...And you've framed it with the two front trees, bathed in a rich white light, like a gateway to the Deep...Beautiful work & postwork, and more of your love affair with an area you've lived in so many years, and which you photograph like you would a very big, majestic but very intimate dear friend...
