Highway 5 is a long stretch from San Francisco to Los Angeles. Most of it is boring. But when the light is right, the hills are gorgeous! Top it off with beautiful clouds and the moon and you are living in a dream!
Independence Day 2016.
I came back to this vantage for the fireworks after six years, partially to observe whether my photographic and post-processing skills had improved since. (I would like to believe they have). I'll try to post the image I captured back in 2010 below so you can compare.
Recent events (both domestic and international) in the past two months have been rather overwhelming to digest and fully comprehend without a profound sentiment of sadness. Malice is a severe illness that can only be cured if one is willing to engage in challenging his or her own set of beliefs. That requires a determined desire to open one's mind to its uttermost capacity. As long as one believes he or she is absolutely correct, and everyone else is wrong, there will never be any progress in achieving any degree of empathy or acceptance of others who do not look or think like ourselves. Good and evil come in all shades everyday, not just a select few on certain days of the week. Also, the ulterior motives of those same shades rarely ever represent, nor should they define, an entire demographic. I'll leave it at that.
Nevertheless, to evade closing on such a melancholy note, I do sincerely hope you're all having a relatively pleasant summer or winter.

This scene was shot alongside Interstate 5 in Central California, with yesterdays energy depicted by a lone windmill, replaced in current times by the high tension power lines mapping the landscape in the background.
My own take on the classic signature shot of the downtown skyline of Seattle, Washington with Mount Rainier on the right-hand side looking southeast.
Another view of the Willamette River and the I-5 bridge that goes over it. This was taken along the hiking/biking trail that goes along the river between Eugene and Springfield, Oregon.
Captured and posted with my iPad mini.

Drive by shot, as always, from the passenger's seat.

Enjoy your day and thanks for the visit.
#250. It has been quite a while since I've posted up a Lakeview photo, so here is one for the ol' 250.
Thanks for stopping by
Through the clouds, this is I5 coursing through Anaheim, with that road running parallel just left of the freeway and then peeling away being Disney Ave. Barely in the upper left corner of the frame, where Disney Ave terminates, is Disneyland.

Another in my series of photos called View from the Passenger Seat. This one of the beautiful Mount Shasta was taken on a trip last spring down Interstate 5 traveling from Oregon to California. This image was processed for Sliders Sunday. HSS!
Thanks to everyone for stopping by to view, fave, and comment!!

Golden, Oregon. The general store at the abandoned mining town of Golden Oregon. Golden was settled in the late 1840s at Wolf Creek in southern Oregon. In the 1890s about 150 people lived here, until it was eventually abandoned in the 1920s. Several of the original buildings are still standing.
To find Golden, take the Wolf Creek exit (no. 76) off Interstate 5 and travel about 3 1/2 miles east on Coyote Creek Rd and the ghost town will be on the left hand side of the road.

For this post I'm keeping the aerial theme going. Please enjoy this night view of Seattle and it's Northern neighborhoods from 933 feet in the sky, via the Columbia tower.
Have a great week friends and thanks for taking the time to stop by
A different take, at least for me, on an old Seattle classic. There where a half dozen or so photographers out on the Rizal bridge this night so I put the camera as far over the rail as I could and made this 3 shot panorama (not easy on a shaky bridge lol) for a different perspective.
Have a great weekend and thanks for checking out my stream, I really appreciate it.
Just a quick shot I grabbed on our way home that day. The hills were so green. In just a couple of months they were be totally brown. We travel this pass every time we go to visit family or spend the day in greater Los Angeles area.
A look at downtown Seattle, in particular the columbia tower, as seen from the Yesler St overpass of I5.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my work it is much appreciated.

You may have noticed that I've taken yet another *short* break from Flickr. I was getting too busy to keep up with things on here, and my inspiration was running low.
Regardless, after almost a week, I'm ready to get back into it. You'll probably be mainly seeing photos from my trip to Seattle last week... until past Wednesday or so, when I get to NYC. :)
Also, I'll get to my contact's photostreams asap.

I took this photograph from the Sky View Observatory at Columbia Center in downtown Seattle during the evening blue hour. Columbia Center is the tallest building in Seattle at 284 meters (933 feet), and the Sky View Observatory is located on the 73rd floor of Columbia Center. What a view :)

This was the first stop on my epic road trip with my friend Steffan. If you look carefully, you can see him taking pictures with his tripod. I'm still recovering from hip replacement surgery and didn't want to climb the fence like he did. Instead, I walked around the fence line and took pictures of the beautiful sky from different angles.
On the way home the weather really changed and we had snow, sleet, hail, and heavy rain come down on us. This day was pretty amazing and we really enjoyed the drive down to Southern California. We ended up in Jacumba which is a stones throw away from the border. What a great start to a photo trip.
Freshly painted after being installed on a site adjacent to Interstate 5, Dunsmuir, California's civic caboose catches some sun in July 1989. Ironically, although Dunsmuir is one of the most Southern Pacific towns in California, this caboose is a former Northern Pacific unit. The city acquired it from the Great Western Railroad Museum. The artwork on the caboose was painted by local artist and author John Signor.
Fort Tejon in California is a former United States Army outpost that was intermittently active from 1854 to 1864. It is located in the Tejon Pass along Interstate 5 in Kern County. It is now a California State Historic Park. The photo was taken from the front porch of the commanding officer's quarters.
First off I would like to say thanks to everyone here on flickr for all the continued support. I finally reached 100,000 views and really appreciate all the feedback and ideas I've gotten from all of you in the time I've been here. What makes this site so special for me is the constant motivation and sharing of ideas in the community. It really makes getting up early, or sitting and waiting out bad weather for a chance clearing just a little bit easier knowing that others are going through the same struggles to get the images we all enjoy viewing. Through this shared passion of ours I can honestly say that it has made me a better photographer for it and I can't thank you all enough.
Whilamut Passage Bridge (2011 & 2013), official name for the Willamette River Interstate-5 Bridges, a pair of new deck arch concrete bridges spanning the Willamette River at Eugene in Lane County, Oregon.

Crossing the Columbia River on the Interstate (I-5) Bridge.
Just caught the lift towers. The bridge consists of a pair of nearly identical steel vertical-lift, "Parker type" through-truss bridges that carry Interstate 5 traffic over the Columbia River between Vancouver, Washington and Portland, Oregon in the United States.
I've yet to have the good fortune to be stopped for the passing of a large ship. I'm guessing they time such passages for the night, when traffic would be less. There is a lot of traffic. The bridge needs replacement and the states of Washington and Oregon have been discussing or arguing about it for a number of years.

This is the I-5 corridor (called by many the mainline on the upper deck) looking south towards downtown Seattle from the university district on cold stormy evening. This is the main artery of I-5 heading in and out of Seattle and this also includes the express lanes featured in the middle below, which is somewhat of a misnomer because the traffic is always brutal here. In fact traffic was crawling when I took this shot. This part of the interstate is the ship canal bridge that spans lake Union. One of these days I'm hoping to hit some great light but I haven't had much luck from this spot, but I feel this one does reveal the cool steely side of the emerald city.
Wintertime in the Pacific Northwest is not all dreariness and rain. Sometimes there is a break in the action just long enough for something like this to break through. The shooting location is just off Dr. Jose Rizal park, which is very well know for photographers who want to capture this view of Downtown.
This is my 100th post to flickr!!! I would just like to say thank you to all of you who share your work and ideas here on flickr. Deciding to join flickr has been one of the best things I could have done to advance my learning in photography, meet new people, and see places I would never see. It truly is inspiring to see through the eyes of so many throughout the world, I can't thank you all enough.
