The majestic Redwood has become synonymous for strength and ancient respect when it comes to trees - and placing pictures of ancient redwoods in a room of the home will ensure the atmosphere is one of respect and long-lasting power, and the art will inspires a certain sense of awe when observed.
Black and white photographs of redwood trees can bring some of the tree's strength to a wall without the overwhelming color of nature somehow causing the point of its power to be missed.
On the other hand, colorful photographs of redwoods can add their own aesthetic and appeal in a different way, bringing with them their strength and the bright sights of nature - while the black and white photographs might be better placed in a study, somewhere that is meant to be quiet and calm, the colored images might find a home in a room where visitors are sure to see - one where they will spot the colorful photographs of redwoods or the sight of redwoods pictured next to roads on quick glance.
Remember that when placing art it is all about tone, contrast and context - nature will always do well when placed alongside a rustic style, while for those who know their trees the lovely site of a photo of Founders Grove can make a distinct impression.
These photographs and paintings will do better in an area where they can stand out on their own, devoid of the distractions or unneeded colors of other pictures; a picture of an ancient redwood will speak for itself.
