Morning Light Kissed Redwoods and Rhododendrons

Just came back from a relaxing weekend on the northern California coast photographing my beloved redwoods! Memorial Day weekend tends to be a little bit early for the rhododendrons to be in bloom, and this year was no exception. There were a few blooming specimens, however, along the dirt roads of Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, up in the hills overlooking Crescent City. This was taken very early in the morning before sunrise, but just as a hint of warm light began to kiss the trees.
