    The General

    10 years ago NationalGeographic set out to photograph The General, reportedly the world's 2nd tallest tree, although I've read it's now third.
    It's a biggie anyway, hard to photograph without lots of distortion.

     Freedom is just another word for nothin' left to lose.

    Big trees, small seeds.  The cm scale is about an inch, seeds are about pinhead size.
    I'm working on a relative sequoia seed/tree to human sperm and egg/body sizes; join in if you care to.
