The World's Tallest Trees

Coastal redwoods are the world's tallest trees. The tallest of which are located in Redwood National Park along California's Northern Coast. The tallest redwoods exceed 370 feet in height.

I find redwoods to be difficult to photograph due to their size. I have yet to make an image of them that I am happy with, but I hope to fix that someday.

The shot looks pretty good to me Richard, but I imagine with their size it is gonna take one heck of a wide angle to get them all in !!

Thanks Bernie. I think in some respect that the Giant Sequoias might be easier to shoot because at least they are wide in addition to tall.
