"The Monterey cypress trees forming this tunnel were planted in 1930. I love the idea of someone thinking long term about this location, knowing that one day these trees would reach their fully-grown glory. The trees also lead a path towards a telegraphy station with equipment dating back to World War II.
Just before taking this image, the tunnel was blanketed in fog so thick the trees were completely obscured. I readied my camera knowing that the fog could disappear without notice.
The moment I captured felt as if the moisture in the air was suspended at a precarious point of complete disappearance. I wanted my image to reflect the delicate balance of our natural world, and the fog added a sense of emotion.
I strongly feel that this scene embodies the prestige of the National Parks and the surrounding territory. Photographed with an emphasis on texture and light, my image also pays homage to the depth and feeling of the photographic greats before me – as well as to the endless beauty of our National backyard.
When I look back on this series, I think of how lucky we are to have such incredible natural wonders right here at home." - Drew Doggett
