Upper Lewis River in late October is a photographer's dream.
This was taken at the boat harbor at Newport Oregon spring the last few minutes of the blue hour.
This area is a photographer's dream for waterfalls. All three area's. The upper Falls, middle Falls, and the lower Falls are a cornucopia of opportunities. This was taken in the early morning as the mist was slowly disappearing. A magical place!
A last minute run up to Steptoe Butte last night produced some pretty cool shadows over the rolling hills & dang the greens were so vibrant! There were photographer's from all over, some as far away as Texas that I talked too. I feel pretty lucky to live an hour & half away.
Heceta Head Lighthouse has been guiding Mariners since 1894. It's beam is visible for 21 nautical miles.
Aspen trees at their peak in East Glacier National Park.
This is the Upper Lewis River Falls. The lower falls is a favorite with many photographer's, "including Me." On this outing I wanted to be at the base of the falls as the sun was lighting up the top of the flow.
This is the Salmon River, known as the" River of no return" as it flows 425 miles and is one of the longest rivers in the continental United States. The fisherman was not sure what I was up tp.
This is Two Medicine Lake with Mount Sinopah as a backdrop. It was a blustery October morning with a strong wind that was whipping up the lake.
This was taken where McDonald Creek flows into Lake McDonald. You find these pebbles in many of the lakes in Glacier National Park. They vary from red to bloody maroon with greens & blues mixed in. The rocks were formed at different eras when glaciers came they broke the rocks into smaller fragments and the rivers washed them into the lakes. Water erosion rendered them into smooth colorful pebbles.
A Wintery sunset on Lake Coeur D'Alene.
Having been born and raised in Port Angeles I know my way pretty well around the OP. The last time I photographed this lake was 37 years ago. I just never made it back. This is a 120 second exposure that smoothes the lake as well as the clouds. The camera records movement that we can't see with our eyes.
The Autumn colors compliment Trapper's Peak in Montana.
This was taken towards the end of April after a freak snowstorm blew in the night before. Stanley Idaho is on of the coldest areas in the lower 48.
Green Dream- This little waterfall's name I was told is "Goofy," which seems like a strange name for a waterfall. I spent the day with a couple buddy's Scott Allan & Joel Riner exploring the area about an hour from Wallace Idaho. We had some pretty sweet light going on & had lunch afterwards on the North Fork of the St. Joe River. A super fun day!
A sunrise illuminates the valley walls surrounding Palouse Falls. The sculpted canyons were created when the Missoula Floods overtopped the south valley wall of the ancestral Palouse River. The Falls are 198' high
This is four shot vertical panoramic image. This is near the North entrance of Yellowstone National Park. The peak off to the left is Antler peak, with the Quadrant mountain range on the right. The body of water is Swan Lake.
A fresh blanket of snow covers everything on a cold five degree morning.
This is the Upper Lewis River Falls. The lower falls is a favorite with many photographer's, "including Me." On this outing I wanted to be at the base of the falls as the sun was lighting up the top of the flow.
This was taken in Palm Springs in June. A rotating tram passes upNorth Americas' sheerest mountain face.
A blustery Winter evening looking East from the shore of Lake Coeur D Alene.
Chilly Slough Wetland is home to 157 species of wildlife, more than any other site in Idaho. It's a 3,000 acre natural spring-fed wetland.
