Spirit of the Ancient Forest

Giant Bigleaf Maple; its limbs covered in ferns and moss
Edition Size: 
450

The deep forests of Washington’s Olympic Peninsula can feel enchanted. The giant, dripping trees and vast quiet give a sense that spirits are afoot. And perhaps they are. I do know that Olympic National Park is alive with wildlife: I saw my first Bobcat here and lots of Cougar tracks. I’ve seen River Otters, Coyotes, Bald Eagles, Roosevelt Elk, Olympic Marmots, American Black Bears, and scores of other species.

RAIN FOREST AUTUMN 1: Golden Maples

Golden maple leaves behind draped lichens.
Edition Size: 
250

The rain forests of the Olympic Peninsula are home to a variety of lifeforms that live on the giant trees, including mosses, lichens, and ferns. My favorite lichen, known by its scientific name “Usnea,” or as “Old Man’s Beard,” is the longest lichen in the world. Draping gracefully from Bigleaf Maple limbs, it reminds me of the Spanish Moss of the Deep South–though it is completely unrelated. In this photograph, the warmly colored background is from autumn maple leaves, in rich shades of yellow and orange. LOCATION: Staircase, Olympic National Park, Washington State, USA
