The overall feel of the image projects a bit of emptiness and decay of the surroundings. However, the subject with its less than pristine look is perfect for the surrounding darkness and is nicely set off against the background.Well done!

The Redwoods were on my list for a fall trip until my wife came up with a bum leg. I will try for the spring.

interesting light-play here. I wonder if a little warmer temp would give this a nice touch. Sort of a warm haven in a sea of dark and cold.

This view reminds me of a glimpse into the 'land that time forgot'. A primeval landscape Jens!

Definitely like the mysterious mood and light on the ferns, very appealing in my opinion.
