Tree Farm Color

The storms currently pounding Oregon and Washington have blasted off the remaining fall leaves giving trees the bare look of Winter. Just a few weeks ago however, I was captivated by the fall leaves at a hybrid poplar tree farm.

These are fast growing trees that are ideal for paper production. If they are processed quickly, the produce a brilliant paper with minimal bleaching.

    I spotted these on my way up to Coleville, Washington. The exact location eludes me however.

  3. Love that top photo, so surreal. The trees look so natural, and then -- in masse -- so unnatural LOL.
