Fascinating article. I'm a tree lover from way back, so I'm going to
have to find that book. Thanks for sharing.

(There's a White Oak across the street from me that looks to be about
six feet in diameter at its base. I frequently marvel at it and wonder
how old it might be. It's certainly far older than any buildings within
miles of here.)

The current issue of Sierra magazine, the magazine of the Sierra Club,
has,
what is to me at least, a fascinating article on trees and how to
photograph them, more specifically big and historic trees.

James Balog, the photographer, describes how he made the photos, all of
which involved many images that were stitched together - kind of like
an
arboreal panorama.
His web site is mentioned in the article, but it's a small note in
small
type and easily overlooked. So, here it is: www.jamesbalog.com I've
not
yet visited the site, but will surely do so soon.
