Marnie, I just now noticed this. You did well with the DoF without a tripod. Under the circumstances, I think you made a good choice in choosing to focus on the near ferns rather than the tree bark. I've made many a redwood drive without bagging anything worth printing. This year I'm going to visit Kruse Rhododendron St. Reserve on the Sonoma Co. coast. According to what I've read, the bloom is usually from April into summer. The mix of redwoods and rhododendrons has been something I hope to accomplish some day. I don't know if there are any serious redwoods in Kruse Reserve, but should be well worth the looking sometime in late April or early May. Have you ever been there, Marnie?
