When visitors come to San Francisco they want to see Redwood trees in a natural setting, and nothing fills the bill better than Muir Woods National Monument, right here, out by the coast in our beloved Marin County.
Unfortunately, I seldom visit Muir Woods and it's tall redwood giants. Just too many people -- they make you walk on a boardwalk, and parking is always a challenge. The other problem is that the Redwoods are darned difficult to shoot -- and I've heard other photographers mention the same complaint.

But if you are willing to settle for Sycamore trees, then we are in luck. There's a long string of these beauties following Redwood Creek after it finishes traversing Muir Woods. The creeks flows year-around to some extent so the trees get plenty of water.

And more of the same colorful water here at Redwood Creek that I enjoy hunting down and snapping at Lagunitas Creek.
