Thank you, Mark.
BTW, a photo posted earlier, will be the cover for 101 Things to Do, Humboldt ... 2014
Used a Tamron 70-300mm lens that I got the day before as part trade on my Sigma 85mm.
It is not supposed to be drifting.
Either the pressure needs reducing, the droplet size increased somehow, or they need to wait for still air.
But the drifting is not an option they should be taking. They need to make the changes, not you.

I wish I could get down that way a few times a year, as you do, Mario.
Been meaning to compliment you on your photography ventures You've come a long way, and fast! And your use of the redwoods for modeling has to be unique, and no doubt appreciated, and being noticed...

Anyone ever notice the huge dead remnant just east of Cave Junction and Kerby, Oregon?
It's on the south side of Hy. 199 a couple hundred feet back give or take.
I've meant to stop by and ask about it.
Re: Think I\'m gonna retire
This topic reminds me of back in 2005 when I decided to quit doing tree and landscape work because it seemed rather difficult, so I got a sales job in southern Oregon, where we moved summer of that year for a change.
In 5 weeks I seemed to ache more from not...

So what do you find the most effected?

Did you mean "effective" ?
If effective, I find either chips or bark mulch about the same for function, except the bark decomposes quite a bit slower.
Wood chips yield more mushrooms with some people don't like, but I find them...

That one of Battery Point would make a good post card. Must of been a 5 minute exposure, I'd imagine.

Sorry md, I agree about depth/ thickness being important, but I'm not sure if you're saying that barkdust is pro or con at 3" or at all?
What's the difference between barkdust and wood chips?
I assume one is from bark and one's from wood, so what I'm asking is one better do they...
I don't think it matters much whether it's a volcano or a layer ... but the depth of the mulch, and how much is added, and when, is what's important.
My experience finds little need for mulch / barkdust thicker than about 3" thick.
Bark mulch seems to cause a thatch roof like quality...
Re: \"Redwood Season\" Arrived
Last weekend, found an area in Jedediah Smith redwoods that had more large Douglas Firs in close proximity than I've seen in that park before.
No new records, but big enough to get me back there to look more.
Here's one of the larger ones.
