old-growth trees are so important, and deforestation is deadly for the planet.

I love the smell of trees and damp earth in forests. Alas not too many around here. The closest is about 25 miles away.
Great forest photos. For some reason I don't think of the silver birch as a 'northern' tree but they really are. As for the forests of Mount St. Helens that was truly an awe inspiring event. So sad to see all the trees gone and the damage done, but Nature soon renews herself. We visited there not too long after the eruption.
Too bad they are no longer respected. I love being in forests (atleast the ones that are allowed)

Wow, you really hit forests around the world. Love them all. Nice textures too.
