Also, 2 or 3 of the bridges crossing the streams were brand new and the paths were restored. There were many trees cut down which, I presume were killed by the fire but not fallen. One shot I'd like to go back for, perhaps next year after the exposed wood is not so newly exposed and bright, is a huge redwood that was fallen and splintered at it's base by a huge granite boulder that had come down the hill. So I think a lot of work went into it. One of the paths to a waterfall is still closed.... Again, thanks for looking, Bob Bob Adler Palo Alto, CA http://www.rgaphoto.com ________________________________ From: Nathan Wajsman <photo at frozenlight.eu> To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Thu, September 2, 2010 10:16:44 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] IMGs: Walk In The Woods Beautiful pics, Bob. How much work was involved in re-opening the parks? Nature seems to have done a pretty good job of restoration.
