I sold a couple big prints on canvas at the gallery. And at the cultural center where the show was, several prints sold and one print on canvas.
So I did better than breaking even on expenses. I had hoped to at least break even. It was a chance to see which type prints and what sizes people had...
Good to hear from you Jake. That was a good time sharing the redwoods together.
Did you folks see any of the recentdiscoveries, like this one? Largest known coast redwood trunk, found back in 2014. One of various redwood titan discoveries at Redwood National and State Parks.
I went heavy on...
The lighting is very nice on the right side of the trunk. I packed-in a small LED light panel that I put on a stand to illuminate the heavy shade on the left side.
Here's one taken near the lighthouse at Crescent City ... also for the art festival booth next week.
So you have apparently seen the entry level requirements.
The researchers have to get permits. And they have to list who is climbing with them. If they are rigging trees with computers, sensors and doing other advanced calculations, it makes sense that the typical candidate for climbing with...
There was some self promotion with the video.
And others probably can climb safely under certain circumstances.
As far that the playing field ... anybody who jumps the same hurdles and fills the same paperwork can qualify to climb them (legally).
FWIW ...
For the record, I wnt
The permit covers all of 2015 for all the redwood parks in Del Norte and Humboldt counties. Its different from the permits scientists need. I think their permits are a full year, but the permit lists what they applied for. And if it was to climb and measure or...
One part that is inconvenient, but not a problem (yet) is the Redwood National and State Parks rangers have insisted that I get a research permit to explore and measure (from ground with laser) in the state old growth redwood parks.
So far, permit #2 for 2015 just arrived this morning.
Redwood...
Maybe you read elsewhere ... one of the redwoods we found last year apparently has 1298 points if ranked according to how big tree registries work. We don't anticipate nominating to American Forests right now. The redwood is more likely 1300 to 1302 points. We know the height we can get with...
Its probably 70 feet up, or more. Plus being in Stout Grove, its doubtful someone will try and cut the tree down for the burl like was done once about 1 hour south. The worst culprit was caught and sentenced last year. Doesn't end the problem completely, but I think it put a lot of fear into...
It would be at the Treehouse (Butch's) end in the lounge in a thread related to portraits.
The tree below is the same redwood as one in a previous photo.
This image is the version I did for a 20" x 30" canvas print to hang here.
