I like the contrasting visuals of the light sky with the dark tree trunks and how the trees’ bark colors get lighter as your eye moves to the sky. I also like the visual of the trees appearing to grow up to touch the sky. The shot definitely focuses your eyes to the magnificent height of these 200+ feet and over 700 years old giant Redwoods.
I captured this shot with a Canon 5D Mark III and a Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II lens at ISO 6400, 1/30 second, 24mm, f/14 and 0.67 ev.
