“Trees form Smiley Face,” Oregon, USA,
The forest looks alive in the coastal part of Oregon, where this smiley face measuring 80 meters in diameter appeared in the middle of the hills in the autumn of 2020.
This was all planned out and planted by Hampton Lumber, in the middle of the forest, between the American towns of Grand Ronde and Willamina
The design features a mix of douglas fir and larch planted during a reforestation of the area.
The larch trees have been organized in such way that during autumn, their needles turn yellow, creating the body of the face while the douglas fir makes up the eyes and mouth.
