Red Pine Plantation

Despite not being the most ecologically healthy places out there, red pine plantations are always a personal favorite to walk through and photograph. The uniform rows, tall straight trunks make for long sight lines, fun light/shadow play and interesting perspective manipulation. It’s like walking through a manmade stylized forest sculpture. This particular plantation sits adjacent to a large natural cedar swamp creating a dark backdrop and a dramatic contrast in creators, habitat type and overall feel at its edge.
