Not a fake, you should broaden your alleged knowledge base.

Re: YOU got one tree cut today?
Fake? No, I don't think so. When my dad was a young man he at one time worked as a logger up in Canada somewhere. He told stories about how big the trees were. In the winter it was so cold and could get down to way below 0 degrees F. The men would run up and down the huge trunks of trees trying to stay warm. He might have been exaggerating, I don't know, but he said when it got down to -50 degrees F they would get the day off.Fred wrote:Fake pic

Every one knows about giant red woods. The pic with the kids is genuine but the first is not -look at the chippings and the cut.

There you go you just proved it is fake with the third pic. The tree lying down was attached to the stump and has a broken part that sheared off.
The fake pic is clean all the way through --not possible.
AND the guy leaning on the tree seems to be leaning on nothing, why is his hand not in the shadow as the rest of the tree.
Its very good but lots of this stuff around.

He's not leaning on a tree Einstein, he's holding the saw blade.
Have you ever dropped a tree? Ever flushed a stump?

Re: YOU got one tree cut today?
In the FIRST pic---you know the fake one, they guy is supposed to be leaning on a tree stump, not holding a blade. His hand is a few feet of the Timber. Do you use corrective lenses.
Read my post carefully again. Try to read each word. Read it twice if need be.
The rest of your post about me changing a screen name remains misunderstood.
Perhaps a sober approach may help.

I also agree, there are plenty of manageable size trees to be had for lumber.jeffcoslacker wrote:I agree...something that has managed to live for centuries, brought down in a day or two because someone wants boards...JFL Live wrote:navigator wrote:

Instead of photo shopping that digital image back in the late 1800's, they should have gone to Home Depot.

Re: YOU got one tree cut today?
I love to ponder these great old pics.
Some have expressed sadness at the dropping of these majestic trees. However when they were being dropped the mindset was on industrialization, not on ecology.
Funny how the era shapes the perspective.

I realize that. They used to do really huge things (sometimes unintentionally) for what now seems like a really shortsighted reason.Tbeck wrote:I love to ponder these great old pics.

My favorite example is the creation of the Salton Sea in CA. If you've never read about it, it's fascinating. Created one of the largest lakes and diverted the entire Colorado River into the basin due to collapse of man-made structures to modify river flooding. Created a 100 ft high cutback waterfall that was retreating at an incredible rate daily. If it had been allowed to continue, that whole area would have become vastly different. Department of the Interior (I think) made the railroad fix it, at a cost that would be equal to a couple billion today, IIRC.
