Your photo of the Wade tract superficially resembles photos I've taken here in the NJ Pine Barrens. As for your Redwood photo, how about these photos taken on June 23, of Pitch Pines, about 6 or 7 weeks after a forest fire. Pitch Pine is a cool speciels, how it re-grows after a fire. The location is about 5 miles from here, or less.

First I ventured to south Georgia to briefly visit the Wade Tract, one of the only remaining large stand of old growth Longleaf Pines in the world (see pic). It's like stepping back in time to catch a glimpse of what much of the south from Texas to Virginia looked like hundreds or thousands of years ago. Secondly I spent my 3 year anniversary on the Big Sur coast in California. Just in time to catch the amazing new NatGeo article on the Coastal Redwoods. The attached picture is of new growth on a redwood that I assume burned in the large fires last year in Big Sur. The fire reached the crown and you can see fresh green growth from the top to nearly ground level. Very interesting dichotomy between the blackened trunk and lush regrowth.
