Hoh Rainforest Duotones

Hoh Rainforest, Washington State, USA. 1st and 2nd November 2018. (Trip summary and links to posts).

Equivalent colour posts with more images and more information are Hoh Rainforest Part 1. and Hoh Rainforest Part 2.

Apart from La Push images at the start and end, all are from Hoh Rainforest.  I drove from where I was staying in La Push, which is about 75 kilometres (47 miles) or an hour and a quarter.

These images are duotones which means different colours are assigned to highlights and shadows.  I processed an initial image to have orange highlights and green shadows.  I copied those settings to the others and then adjusted each one, often considerably, so they are all different.  An image with more shadows and the same toning can also look quite different to an image with more highlights.

The lichen-encrusted tree branches are an unending source of wonder. .

This isn’t a stand-alone copse, just a small section of the rainforest.

Is it a mushstool or a toadroom?

Small epiphytic ferns growing out of a protrusion on a tree, like a gargoyle on the walls of Nature’s cathedrals.
