Size Matters!

Size Matters!


SixPack.jpg

These guys are even bigger!


We just finished walking through parts of General Grant Grove in the Sequoia National Park, when I thought, how am I going to show Scale?

I mean these things tower, but a pic? an image? Doesn't do it justice.



We walk into the parking lot, getting ready to leave and we come across this guy, snapping an iPhone pic of his girlfriend. He's in the Dark Blue sweatshirt in the skinny photo, above. He's at the base of the sixpack. Barely visible. He's 6 foot or so. She's about 5ft 2, or so... and in Sky Blue. Behind him. so, yeah, these trees are tall. About 200 ft tall.



The image below, with two trees, and fencing...The fence is mid chest height, and the trees are about 15 feet, (5 meters) in diameter. These are a thousand years old.
Fascinating...

More of my Sequoias Photos


Always, I strive to give back
To the animals and birds around me
to put more plants in than I take out
And be a good steward for the world around me!

Those trees are...

tall and huge.

Never see such tall trees before. I am amazed... The wonders of nature.

some of them, 1000 years old? older?
and it would take a dozen, 15 people to hold hands, to gt around the base of the tree!

They were MASSIVE!!! It was a really fun day walking through the park with him!

Hi @iamjadeline!!! :) Hehe

You did a great job capturing the scale!!!!! Even without the people you can really see how massive they are!!!! What a fun memory! I just went past a picture of the fallen tree we walked through... Super cool!

@bluefinstudios those look huge, like redwood trees. Great hearing this post shared on #pypt

Saw this on PYPT, but, you'd have to back up farther to get my whole tree in the picture :P
