Chris Burkard Instagram – The forest undergoes transformation as the sun dips behind the mountains and stars replace the blue skies. Taking a moment to be quiet and allow the sounds of wildlife to resume and being disturbed by your presence really gives you a window into the vast amount of life in this particular ecosystem. Last fall, I was fortunate enough to spend an evening underneath these giants, documenting them in all conditions during an assignment for @natgeo … sometimes those type of nights camping in the truck eating freeze dried food are the best… keeping you a little more connected to the nature you’re out to document and open to immersing yourself in special place like this one.
