Fall visit to Muir Woods

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

We had a visitor in town this past week and took her on a drive up to Muir Woods via the Marin Headlands, Marine Mammal Center, and Rodeo Beach. Having been to Muir Woods many times, I am always at a loss for new photo ideas that aren’t the same old picture of looking skyward at the giant trees. This time I found a leaf on the ground and tried to use it to get some different sorts of photos.

Muir Woods redwoods

On Saturday there wasn’t much in the way to surf so I took a trip up to Muir Woods to check out the redwoods. The trees are massive and often captured from far away. I decided to get up close instead. Here’s one of the pics.

Note-to-self: Next time go to Muir Woods right when it opens. Anything after that and it will be overrun with tourists.
