~Little Gem~

Avalanche Creek is a little gem in Glacier National Park.

~Garden of Green~

~Spring Has Sprung~

One of the many obscure little waterfalls in the Gifford national forest.

~Autumn Silk~

One of the many Waterfalls on the Lewis River in Southwest Washington. The Lewis River is a Treasure trove of beauty and certainly Nirvana for the photographer who loves capturing Waterfalls. This one minute exposure gives the image a dreamy silky look. Over the course of a one minute exposure the camera records movement that we cannot see with our own eyes. It is the expression of time, taken in a single image.

~Chasm's Edge~

This was a five minute exposure taken at night, from a great vantage point. The Ice Age Floods carved the Palouse River canyon and created Palouse Falls and the surrounding canyon. It is the only year round waterfall created by the Ice Age floods that continue to flow today.

~Beauty Creek~

Beauty Creek is near the town of Coeur D Alene Idaho. I sat in my neoprene waders with my tripod down as low as it would go.

~Spirit Roar~

I wanted a little different perspective. I've never seen blue water like Spirit Falls. I was told that in the late afternoon the water takes on a blue hue. It was a scramble down to the falls & I witnessed two kayakers go down the left side, but I wasn't set up to capture them. Darn!

~Deschutes River~

I shot this a few days ago in Oregon. It was just one of those weekend camping trips with my son. We picked out a random campground to stay at. It was really a great time to spend some quality time with him & appreciate simple things

~Sol Duc River~

Mid morning at the Sol Duc river. I grew up about an hour from here and visit whenever the opportunity arises.

~Portrait of a Stream~

This is a tiny section of Ruckel Creek just downstream from a waterfall deep in the Columbia River Gorge. Sometimes hunting for the small intimate scenes are just as fun to photograph as the larger landscapes.

~Garden of Eden~

This small creek is located in the Olympic National Park near Solduc Falls Solduc Falls is always the main attraction, however I enjoy visiting this little creek each year.

~Kaleidoscope~

A long exposure of Maple Leaves in a small creek in Glacier National Forest last October. I probably spent an hour trying different settings as each leaf formation was different from one shot to the next. It was really fun.

~Solitude~

A waterfall deep in the Columbia River Gorge.

~Sparkling Water~

Sol Duc Falls in the Olympic National Park. "The name, Solduc is an Indian term meaning "sparkling water."

~The Last Age~

Mammoth floods during the end of the last ice age more than 10,000 years ago created this unique landscape This is the Snake River about a quarter mile before it becomes Palouse Falls. I had taken many images of Palouse Falls, but wanted something different. My wife and I climbed down the steep trail to this view. Three years ago while going down the same trail I took a nasty fall and twisted my knee. After three weeks of limping around, I told myself that I would never attempt the same route. My wife talked me into trying it one more time. We were very careful taking our time, and had the view to ourselves.

~Somewhere Under the Rainbow~

Big Creek plunges 130 feet into the canyon below and begins its tumultuous descent to the Lewis River, in Southwest Washington. My friend noticed the Rainbow as we walked past a vantage point. I shot a few frames, and decided to use my longest zoon to capture three elements. The mossy rocks, the base of the falls, as well as the Rainbow.

~Dancing Lupines~

Dancing Lupines make a grand entrance on the bank of a glacier-fed stream near Mount Adams. They seem to be peeking into the stream to see something special that only they can see. They appear each July for two weeks or a bit more, than vanish until the following Summer.

~Little Gem~

A little waterfall near St. Maries Idaho

~Weeping Walls~

Eagle Creek deep in the Columbia River Gorge.

~Elowha Falls~

Elowha Falls rushing in April

~ The Lower Lewis River~

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!

~Shadow Dancer~

Early morning dappled sunlight illuminates the multicolored river rocks at Shadow Falls, in North Idaho.

~Palouse Dreaming~

Just as we pulled into Palouse Falls to set up camp, My wife noticed the rainbow and excitedly told me to grab my camera. I sprinted to a perfect vantage point knowing that the Rainbow wouldn't last for long. I shot three or four frames before the Rainbow slowly dissapeared. I think I shot three or four frames before the rainbow slowly disappeared.

~Clinging~

Upper Lewis River in late October is a photographer's dream.
