I have a few things to mention in today’s post. First, I decided I’m not waiting anymore for something to happen and I’m going to take a risk and try to make them happen. I’m heading north tomorrow, and after a few days in the bay area and Sacramento area, I’ll be moving to Oregon. I don’t have a job lined up and have hardly any money in my pocket, so don’t be surprised when I start asking you guys if you’re interested in buying prints soon. Wish me luck, pray, and send good vibes my way. I certainly need all the help I can get with this move.
Second thing I want to mention is Superimpose is free just for today. If you’re interested in blending images together, this one is worth a look. Check it out here.
Now, on to the image for today. For a little context, this large kiln is out in the middle of a redwood forest, about a half mile hike from the campgrounds. From the website:
In late 19th century, these ovens supplied a thriving industry: Limestone was ‘‘cooked’’ out of the rocks—a real stone soup—for use in building materials.
I believe they made mortar out there for the SF bay area if I remember correctly. It was almost impossible to get a wide shot of how large these things are because of the caution tape around them. If there wasn’t another hiker nearby, I’d have done what I had to do to get the shot 
Shot with ProHDR, edited with snapseed and shockmypic.
Good luck with the move! I am positive that all will work out. And a change is as good as a holiday you know, so think of it as a holiday!
Thank you Heather. Right now I’m pretty nervous, but trying to stay positive. If I can pick up some work doing anything, It will work out.
Yes, good luck with the changes. You are going where you are meant to be.
Yes. I sure hope so.
Welcome to the PCNW! Oregon is a great place. A photgraphers heaven! Be sure to make your way to the Gorge after you get settled.
Me? Actually, I’m here in Spokane, WA.
Good luck!
Thanks Rick. I’m definitely ready to explore the PCNW. I’d love to get back to the gorge. I spent a couple hours out there back around halloween and knew I’d have to come back multiple times.
Hi David, have a great trip and all the best on your journey!
Thank you Chris
Good luck David.
Thanks Edith.
Good luck with your move! I’ve heard Oregan is beautiful but have never been.
YAY!! I’m so excited for you David. It’ll work out fine, I just know it. I always think, if you want something bad enough, you’ll find a way to get it. I know you want this bad enough. Congratulations! I guess I should think about what print to buy next, huh? Good luck friend!
Good luck with everything David! It’s been echoed in other comments, but you’re in a great location for a photographer.
Get settled quick! I may be taking a trip to Washington state sometime between now and Feb, so we can plan a photo-meet-up. =)
