There is a stand of giant Sequoia trees (Redwoods) in British Columbia in Redwood Park. In 1893 Peter and David Brown inherited a large tract of land and instead of farming it they decided to fill this space with their favourite trees. These giant Sequoia are now 130 years old and I took the trouble to visit the park, crouching beneath a magnificent trunk to look upwards and draw.
