Morning in the Redwoods


This Wednesday our plein air group went to the UC Davis Arboretum.  It was very windy but deep on the floor of the Redwood section we were sheltered from it.  There are many redwoods and they grow quite close to each other.  There are breaks and light comes through.  I tried to capture this as the streaks come and go.  It gets darker in the distance with light at the top.  I've tried to handle this with a lighter green background as well as thickness of the tree trunks.  I put a couple of figures in black to give an idea of proportion.
