Our first image is of a tree blown down long ago and the root ball exposed: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/roots+vs+trees.jpg.html Another bit of downed tree with alien growths feeding on it: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/recycling+the+log.jpg.html Surprisingly in a largely coniferous forest we have a deciduous tree growing: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/rare+deciduous.jpg.html Evidently there was a powerful windstorm that knocked down a lot of trees: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/logjam.jpg.html Sometimes when you are out hiking in the Cascades it rains on your head: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/rain+on+the+mountain.jpg.html I believe this is the site of a controlled burn and the new growth in the rain: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/seedling+with+water+drops.jpg.html All the best. -- Don don.dory at gmail.com
