I like them in people and action shots.

What's especially fun about sock puppets is that you can make each one unique and individual, so that they each have special characters. And they don't have to be human––animals and aliens are great possibilities

There are nine Doug firs slated to be chopped down on Village Park Dr. SE in Issaquah (take a left off Lakemont after the Thriftway) so the rich people in the mega mansions can have a view. Sign there lists dates for comments.

The second one makes me sad, but the 1st and third are pretty scenic. Thanks for a different perspective.

Scenery in the forest. Trees may be just what it takes to make a building become scenery.
Redwood tree in the forest Forgot the building name. Next to the train station in Los Angeles

We appreciate a good tree.

But they do look nice on log trucks too.
Neither of these made it onto a truck so all may relax.

Yes. Sometimes they are the main attraction themselves, othertimes they are secondary. And sometimes they do just get it in the way

I think they are scenery. I just usually like to be up high enough where I can see lots of them.
Some of the really cool solo tree pics you guys have posted are starting to sway my opinion of the single tree though.

Yes, one of my favorite photo subjects!

In Zion park I found the trees especially dramatic, but perhaps that is because it was in the spring and they were still bare and stark against the cliffs.

I like trees even more after reading this thread. Wonderful photos, especially Kyle D, Sky_Pilot, Galiwalker, and Chainsaw Willie!
